of whats listed, the Head 78 but I will add that if you are skiing 50% of the time off piste in western soft snow, but only occasionally run bumps, I am a little confused about where you're skiing. Tree's? what kind of off-piste conditions?? I would defintiely be looking for a true mid-fat, like the Sultan or a Icelantic Pilgrim, Line Prophet 90, Blizzard 8.7 and a few others in the 85-92mm underfoot category. All of the above have under 20 m tr. All are plenty quick and nimbe, there's really no dis-advantage over a 78-80mm ski unless you are only skiing manicured groomed.? My everyday ski is the Pilgrim, 90 underfoot which has a 19 m tr and it will perform better than the 78 in softer snow conditions overall and give nearly nothing up on the groomed.
