Information overload on next board

So hate to post another thread on this topic but one size doesn't fit all. I am starting to look for a new board. Background. I am 41 6'2 201lbs been riding for over 7 years and do mostly east coast riding. I do hit colorado but I don't hit enough pow days to make powder a major focus for a new board. No park just all mountain riding. Riding style is more around speed and agility so like to have control while the board is moving and moving quickly. Like to get my board off the ground so don't mind a bit of pop..
Current Rig...
LibTech Mark Landvik Phoenix Series (160)
Nike Lunarendor size 11.5
Union Atlas bindings.
Angles 26 and -18
Stance width is 24.5 inches
I had knee surgery last year so I keep messing with my angles and stance width. Just have not found the perfect blend yet.
So My board is getting pretty beat up. I never fell in love with this board and I came from a Burton 2008 Un-INC with EST Cartel bindings. I really liked the Burton but liked the way the libtech held an edge way better so could really carve on the harder packed snow.
So I think I want to keep with magnatraction type technology since I prefer to be able to really carve into the packed snow/ice. I have been debating on going a bit bigger 162 and maybe a tad wider. I don't have to much toe or heel drag but was thinking wider might give me a bit more stability.
Boards I have been reading about
Never summer Proto HDX
Never summer Heritage
Libtech TRS HP
Never summer Legacy
My GF rides a Never summer and absolutly loves it. I am getting a bit lost in the sea of information so thought I would open up the discussion and see if anyone had any further recomendations and or if anyone had some suggestions.
Appreciate any help and or input. Thanks.
