Ski recommendations for previous snowboarder in the PNW.

I'm 6'1, 200 lbs with size 13 US men's shoes. I'm pretty lanky with long legs. My kids are old enough to start learning, and we're going to start them in skis. I previously had skied about a decade ago after taking a few lessons, and started learning to slide and carve. I'm still in that beginner zone transitioning to intermediate. My local hill is Snoqulamie, with occasional visits to Stevens and Whistler.

The one thing I did purchase about 7 years ago was a pair of Solomon QST Access 70 boots new. They are molded for my feet, so I'm good to go there. They've been used just a few times. I'd like to keep my purchase of skis + bindings under $1000 if possible.

My goals are to just have fun. I want to be able to hang out with my kids on the hill as they progress and enjoy myself when I get the chance to go off on my own or with my wife. I don't want to buy a beginner board just to upgrade next season. I'd love something to grow into. Thanks!
