This is good timing as I just joined and have been working through the almost exact same scenario. We are the same height and about the same weight and I've had been demoing and looking at new skis. I just tried the kendos this past weekend and they worked well in the White Mountains on a mix of groomed and spring conditions throughout the day. They were solid and responsive going fast on the firm morning groomers and kept up when the snow got soft later in the day. I also demoed the enforcer 88 in February and I want to try it again, because it was a classic cold, icy New England ski day when I did them. The enforcers that day didn't care if it was sheet ice, granular ice, packed powdery ice it charged through everything thrown at it. I think it would carve through the parking lot if I didn't slow down. I think the enforcers would be better carving the ice and random crud on the trails, both seem fantastic on the groomers, but the kendos would shine more in trees and bumps
