Can you just pick one for me?
Ah that's easy. The WRT 12 or 16. The latter-if you sometimes feel like the better brother of that Odermatt fella

You may not need one of each size, certainly debatable, so it’s being frugal to just get one size.

Pffft. Go big or go home, Icon 30 ... the 24 is just too warm and fuzzy.
I made the mistake of putting my wife on my AX's last year, and every time I show her candidate skis so I can get them back, she points at the AX and says "THAT ONE". So if anyone has some in a shorty (sub168) length they are looking to part with for a good price, let me know....
I was seriously considering doing exactly what you did in getting the Monteros at Powder 7. However I already have a pair of AX's that have one day on them. Powder 7 was going to give me $700 for them, but then it was going to cost me another $700 for the Monteros. From what I have heard and read, the Lasers and the Monteros are pretty similar from a performance and feel standpoint. Plus I needed (wanted) carving skis, so I ended up trading in two other pairs of used skis for a new pair of Head Magnums. No $$$'s out of pocket. Time will tell if it was the right decision. I'll be interested to hear what you think of the Monteros.Stockli Laser AX Men's Skis - Powder7

They aren’t necessarily a “good” price, but if you have some other skis to trade in, it makes it a good price. I recently traded four pairs for the Monteros! I never ever would have bought those otherwise … I could have sold skis on my own, but I don’t think I would have gotten as much as I did from Powder7. The hassle factor for sure would have been greater.
If you are thinking more stability/versatility in variable/softer snow, then yes, the ARs are better than SC in that department. AR is a better crud buster than the SC or AX.dockgkr, your comment worries me a bit because I bought a pair of 175 ARs hoping to get some more stability and versatility.
Sc is more variety, the CX is shorter turn bias.How does the SC compare to the CX in feel? Anyone get on both?

I'm POSSIBLY looking for a <70mm carver that is more playful than hard charging with good grip.

They sound awesome. But the longest length is 163 or 164 and at 5’10” (178cm) and 168lb (77kg)) would that be too short? Or would I just have a short radius turn ski which would be fun?From the Stockli line up?
Ever considered the Laser MX? From what I hear these are fantastic ladies' carvers.
