this could trigger a bit of debate.  My opinion.  Buy the ski for what you do 90% of the time.  For you,that sounds like
East Coast groomed snow carving, so I would stay with a slalom footprint and a waist width of less than 70mm. 

If you wanted more versatility to use the same ski when skiing Western Mountain froomed trails then you could go another 6-8 mm wider.

A Follow-up question, however, would be whether you have invested in well fitted boots yet.  If not, then I woujld get those next and not new skis.

Eveyone, note that he has only been skiing three years before suggesting Watea 94's.
