I was born on ski's and switched to snowboarding and now on the return to skiing. However I intend to do both downhill and skijoring in the next season (skiing with my dogs)

I am having trouble deciding on which ski and binding set would be best suited.

Factors:

• ungroomed trails
• flat/ hilly terrain
• downhill
• distance

So my questions are:

1. knowing the above factors, is there a ski setup that could handle both downhill and backcountry at speed?
2. knowing downhill will probably need a separate setup what type of ski could handle like a backcountry ski but with a skating motion in a cross country binding/boot setup?
