K2 el camino the first year it came out ruled. It lasted me 4 seasons...which is saying A LOT considering how much i abused them and the rocks and mud that covers my hill. K2 enemys blow though...i've never wrecked a ski so fast in my life.

Solomon equipe 9000 3s race skis. Tips came off so many times I put a bolt through it. Then that whole thing ripped off, and the ski delamed for like a foot. Lots of duct tape later, they were still going... :)

But seriously... Head Mad Trix.

salomon 1080 or Rossignol Bandit XX, the are both awesome skis, but both have different things that are awesome about each.

I think that the Concepts are the best ski I have used for jibbing and for all mountain, the Salomon X-Scream 8 kicks ass.

The salomon's 1080s for sure... not only because they are really good... but for what they represent and what they started. It's these skis who started all the whole thing. Plus it's the skis who got the best and the higher number of pros on it.

Interesting bump. T-Halls with scarface graphics. Super light and the only park skis that I have not broken.

best i have owned? hands down without a doubt the Rossignol Scratch FS with the caution tape graphic. those skis got me through two seasons of park skiing, 4 seasons of urban, 4 mounts, and are still going strong. any other ski put through that amount of abuse wouldn't even resemble a ski, it would be ore like a pile of wood, p-tex, and edges.
