    Skis similar to Line Prophet 100? Rustler?

    So I think my Prophets are finally dying. I have probably 150 or so days on them, and they have been my favorite ski of all time. I have some Armada JJ's for deeper days, but spend the majority of my time on the prophets. I have gotten out of touch with the newer technology, but basically looking for a ski that I can chase my 8 year old around with. Something that is relatively playful and can hold an edge on groomers, but can still handle up to 6 inches or so of fresh snow. Would the Rustler 10 be a similar type ski? Honestly, I prefer my prophets to my JJ's in everything up to a foot or so. Just a fun ski. Any other recommendations? I'm 5'10 and 200 pounds. Thanks.

    The J Ski Masterblaster is basically Jason's evolution of the Prophet.

    Never skied the Prophet, but spent a day on Rustler 11's yesterday and loved 'em.

    If it were me I would finish the year on the Prophets and get in on the Praxis preorder for a pair of 9D8s. I picked up a pair of 90s last year for a similar purpose (chasing the kids around the hill). I’m about your size and went with a flex 3 in the 182. Wish they came in just a bit longer length. I have 7 other pairs in the quiver but find these get a lot of use, Way more then I expected.
    They look nice as well.

    I'd rather die while I'm living then live while I'm dead

    Rustler 10 sounds like a good fit, if you want some more beef at speed, while still being fairly playful Enforcer 100/104

    While I for some reason have never skied the prophets I was pretty impressed by the Bentchetler 100s. Felt like fat skis from 2004
    Its not that I suck at spelling, its that I just don't care

    Right when the J skis came out I rode a couple laps with a dude that had a whole j skis kit and skis. J ski stickers on his helmet etc. We talked skis and I told him how I called my prophet 90s my blasters and drove the tips right through chunder. Dude said he was a friend of Jason L and that they were working on a new prophet with rocker that would be a "blaster" for sure. Pretty sure I named the master blaster right then.

    I can recommend the Masterblaster... they anchor the narrow end of my quiver and are extremely versatile.

    Bentchetler 100s are a blast. Super fun
