Looking for new skis

I’m an intermediate skier, and I am looking for a new pair of skis that will allow me to improve while still having fun. I mainly ski on groomed runs (mostly greens and blues).
Also for size reference: I am 5’2 and around 130lbs.
I’ve looked into the following skis and have been recommended them by some people at ski shops I’ve been to:
- Blizzard Elevate 7.7 146cm
- K2 Mindbender 85W 148cm
- Line Pandora 84/85 147cm
- Head Pure Joy 148cm
- Atomic Maven 84/86 147cm

I’ve been recommended the Blizzard Elevates the most and I’m leaning towards those but I’m wondering if there is an option (one I listed or a different one) that might work better for me. Any recommendations or suggestions would be helpful as I’m not too sure what might work best in my case.
Thanks!!

Looking for second board recommendations

I’m a 38 year old female. Been boarding since I was in middle school. Recently started going a lot more in the past few years. I’m an intermediate maybe almost advancedish rider. At my age I just stick to groomers. I live on the east coast where it can be icy and pow days are few and far between and I can’t always chase them. Right now I have a Roxy smoothie that’s an all mountain directional medium flex board. I really like it. I kind of want one more board. Possibly a full camber? Any recommendations?

Wood treatment recommendations

Hi everyone! I made my very own snowboard through a joint program through the local college and my company! I am SO stoked about it and it’s my very first time ever working with composites - so I was 100% expecting some margin of errors.

Here writing to see if anyone has recommendations for the exposed wood on my edge. I’ve seen people say tung oil and then sealing with some regular board wax and others saying marine epoxy. If anyone has experience with maintaining a wooden board I would love some tips!

In addition to sealing recommendations I would also love to know how often I would need to do it! I plan on getting a base grind + wax on this and also getting their opinion. Will update when I get their feedback! Thank you in advance!

Full pic of boards made in class for enjoyment!

Snowboard toe strap help

Brand new to snowboarding so I don’t know much.

Just ordered these Burton Lexa Re:Flex but the toe ratchet strap side won’t seem to go down. It’s stuck in this upright position. Not sure if it’s supposed to come like this but all the videos I’ve seen show their toe straps out of the box not looking like this.

Is this correct? Do I need to fix anything?
