Ok, big questions... as for the skis, I would recommend hiring a few different models and seeing what suits your style best. The 1080 is a great ski but may be more suited to freestyle than freeride... the Scream is probably more of an all-mountain / go anywhere ski, for example. You might also want to try Rossi Bandits and Seth Pistols for contrast.
As for places... well Verbier is a fantastic place for freeriding but then so are many others; Les Arcs has fabulous off-piste as does Chamonix, although the latter might be best left until you are really on top of things.
A lot depends on where you are with your skiing technique generally; how would you rate your experience off-piste so far?
