Anyone around here Snow ski?

[almcbri]

I am heading to Taos in a couple weeks for a ski trip that I have been planning for a year. I am considering buying some ski's since this is the 3rd trip and many more to come. Does anyone have any good information on ski's, what to buy, brand etc. I have been looking on the net this afternoon but can't seem to find exactly what I want. Is HEAD a good brand? I have used the old K2's everytime I rented and liked those well. I know this is way off topic, but I feel as this is a pretty great group of car guys and we can occasionally ask questions off topic.
