You are all correct, I own the Worldcup RC's in 175cm which I use pretty much strictly for racing. I also own a pair of Head Supershapes in 170cm (I actually have two, one is for sale) which I use on smaller slopes when I want to take it easier and in more varied conditions (I find them somewhat soft). I'm not into the one ski quiver, I also own a pair of 07 Head XRC 1200's in 177cm for use on larger slopes for more aggressive skiing on hard snow. Living in the midwest we don't get a lot of snow, man made hard pack and ice are the norm. The ski I'm looking to add would be used once a year out west, skiing lake effect snow in the northern portion of the state as well as spring slop and slush which starts here in February. I don't want a real wide ski, I wouldn't use it enough to justify it. I travel for business in the northern portion of the state and always pack the ski's, you just never know what conditions you will face and I travel light. I want one pair that will do it all as well as handle the once a year trip out west. When I go west I mainly ski the longer fast groomed runs but eventually on the trip it snows and there is always crud to deal with. I'm not really into soft snow and crud, I want a ski that will rip the groomed runs but get me through the crud with the least amount of effort!
