ar5s r so fucking sick, awsome for everything, along with the scratch, both r a good ski, i think the scratch is a little cheaper but i would go with the ar5 if i were u, buying freestyle skis from a company that started with racing skis wouldnt be my first choice


what's up now bitch

You're a real skier if your ski gear is worth more than your car.

yeah really dude. Dynastar started making racing skis, and they kick ass. K2 started out making fucking fiberglass animal cages and they make some sick ass skis man.

I live in a place far far away, where on occasion the telly tubbies will come to play....and that's when Ma gets out the shotgun. Damn critters climb in our gutter system all the time.

your on crack fool. Look at the constuction of the ar5, exact replica of the scratch. Tanner put in alot of input into the scratch line, then left to make some piece of shit armada thingers. Ski on a real companys skis, one that will honor their warrenty, and hold up the abuse that a jibber will put out. be-ach.

I've both skis and i can tell you that scratches are a lot more flexible than the ar5. They are both great, if you're riding only park then go with the scratches , if you wanna use the skis for park and backcountry buy the Ar5
