I'm a newbie in freestyle and I am looking for a pair of skis that can get me going. I don't do any backcountry so i need a park ski that can hold up on the mountain. Any suggestions?

the atomic triplets are really good all mtn skis, so are salomon foils. Both are also good in park too.

Salomon Thruster is a real good start up ski, for someone who is light. But if you are a bit bigger the the k2 Pe is a good startup ski.

you're going to destroy your startup skis...the foil is relatively expensive.

go with the thrusters and you wont be dissapointed.

Yeah...get the cheapest skis you can find new at a store, so you can warranty them.
