I'll go Phils' root although many of these skis I still own and love.

My first breakthrough ski was the Head ISL Chip. I learned to edge lock carve on that ski. My brother skis it still. Great ski.
My next Breakthrough ski was the Head SS. My skiing soared on thsi ski. Still own two pairs.
Next was the ISL RD. Wow if you can arc them what a ski!!
The IM 78 is still the standard for a great all mounatin ski that can do it all. I know I have yet to demo the MX 78, but until I do this is the standard.
Lastly, the Fischer Progressor (now called the 9+) is also one great ski. Best all day cruiser I have ever skied. Can do any shape turn, can comfortably go off piste and can arc like a race ski. Great ski!!

Of cousre my all time favorite ski is the new Head SS with Kers, but that's not allowed in the ground rules being around for less than 2 years.
