Default Hey I need some advice on skis

Hey I'm new here and I'm lookin around for some information on skiis because I am planning to buy a pair for the upcoming season

I live in Vancouver, so I'm up at Whistler skiing a lot of the time, Im 14 about 167 centimeters tall and 115 pounds-ish. I would say I am an advanced skiier although I am not too sure about the classifications for that. I'd say I ski black runs about 70% of the time, which are no problem for me, double black probably about 25%, they are a bit more challlenging for me than a single black, but are still really fun, and the OCCASIONAL triple black, but thats usually only when I'm with a much more expert skiier than myself, and who knows the terrain well. To give you an idea of the type of terrain I like to ski I really like runs like The Couloir of Whistler Peak along with the Sun Bowl which is a must whenever I am up in the area. I am also a fan of tree skiing which is what I first got into as a beginner so I've always had a thing for it. I like the CBC tre run of the Crystal Ridge area, it is still a big challenge for me to get all the way down, but again I'd only head in there with someone who knows where there going. I skiied the easier stuff off the spankys ladder area like the diamond and ruby bowls and really want to try out sapphire bowl but I want to find out the easiest way through the entry chutes first.

Anyways, just lookin for some suggestions on what brand and model skis I could possibly think about

Thanks a lot !!!
