Sent the email to you Gary.
Copied this from my other thread along with some edits - very quiet over there

Need something I can take out West that will perform on groomers since my wife doesn't like to venture off much.  Also soon to be 57 and my right knee is acting up.  The Watea 98 caused pain that some other 98's didn't so I sold them.  Great off-piste ski but not so much on groomed.

I think that given the fact that I am usually either on groomed or crud skiing I am going to stick with something in the 80's.  I would like a ski that I could venture into the bumps with and would help me get better there but the fact is that I am not a very good bump skier and as a result don't spend much time in them. 
Here is what I have narrowed my list to. 
Head Rev 85 and 90 184cm - maybe the Rock and Roll
MX 83 183cm
Outland 87 184cm
Blizzard Mag 8.5 181cm (Not sure whether it makes sense to spend time to demo this one)
I would love to try the Kastle Fx 84 and 94 but they don't have them to demo.  Curious Gary how you find them on groomers.
