Cinski:
I like midwif's suggestion.? Mollie (another all mountain female Colorado skier) really recommended the ski divas in some of her posts last year.? You should also look at Peter's suggestions (if you haven't already), especially since some of his reviewers would be pretty good female skiers that work at ski shops (and some truly pro skiers from Snowbird).? Click on Equipment and then select 1SQ to get Peter's recommendations for 1 Ski Quiver skis of the year, and then look at the female recommendations for the two top levels of skiers.
Interestingly, the Attraxion and Burnin Love are both on his list.? I"ve also heard good things about the Head Wild Thang. I think the two you listed would be fine off trail. Interesting comment about the width, because the Attraxion and the Wild Thang are plenty wide for a women's ski.? Michael has posted some physics in another thread, but because of weight differences a 74mm ski will float a 140lb person as well as an 80+mm ski for a 200lb person. There are also some narrower waisted skis (such as Head Fast Thang) that have even narrower waists but are still rated for some off-piste capability (depends on how much you do of each).
