So i live on the east but want something a little fatter then my chronics which are a little small for me.. I've pretty much narrowed it down to ARV's or Mojo90's.. i plan on goign out west at least once in the next two years and want something good enough for out there, but also a good all mountain ski for the east, which one should i go with?

It comes down to, do you want a stiff ski or a soft ski?

The mojo 90 is going to be a lot stiffer than the arv, so it depends what you will mostly be using the ski for.
Mostly park = arv
Mostly big mtn = mojo 90
Also, some people like stiffer skis because of the stability.

You plan on going out West ONCE in the next TWO Years and you live on the east coast. How bout a Scratch fs or something a little narrower, 90 wait is really gonna rock on all that ice...*sarcasm*

A 90mm waist still rips just as well as a 80mm waist does on all mtn and in pretty much most conditions

Yea in Colorado but not on ice and shit. My ARV's rip all mountain I will be the first to admit that. In fact, i think they are the best all around all mountain ski i have ever owned. However, when i hit those little ice patches they are not very reassuring. I would not want to ski them in the East, not that I would want to ski in the east anyways lol.
