i demo-ed the pow air's and they really aren't a great park ski and i'd say you could do better on an all-mountain twin. i played with some 720's and i don't find it stiff enough. there hasn't really been any good stuff I've heard about it but the only good thing is that alot of shops can't sell them and are selling them for dirt cheap.

out of all them I would probably go with the v legend actually. But Skogens and Darksides are where it's at yo.

The volkl V lengend looks pretty sick. I pick up a pair at T&L on friday. If you like a Stiff twin, they would probabaly be really sweet. They have a full turned up tail too.

dude, pow'airs are awesome, especially grinds. But they just aren't, well as good anymore. The stomps, are for heavy and aggressive skiers ONLY. Tweaks are really sick in the park, light as a feather, and you get huge air. Scratches are pretty cool, but me thinks that if u are just an ordinaery skier, the v-legends are the best

out of those, I'd be a toss up between the scratches, 1080s or the v-legend. they are the most well rounded. I would look into more though, skogens, volkl v-pro, explosive, k2 public enemy, you gotta shop around. Also depends what you are going to be using them for most.
