Ok where are you skiing? what kind of runs? How often, how fast? Any trees, open bowls, just groomers?  Also, fess up and be honest, 6'1 and 225, are you a fit 225 or a few extra cheese burgers 225. This makes a difference.

On the general side:  Watea 84/ 94, head Mojo90, Possibly a mantra, They are a litle stiff though for Moguls, also look at Mythic riders or something in the 88mm plus area. The challenge is that all mountain skis generall suck...With your Allstars, you should be OK on the groomed stuff.  I would say Head 78 or  dynastar LTD (C-11) but not wide enough for pow at your size. The mojo90 is a great ski that I own and really like for any soft snow conditions. I thought they were fine in bumps. The new 94 is my new out west soft snow and pow ski. Softer than the 90 and of course a bit wider in the tip and waiste.
