I just returned from a sick week at Alta and found myself having as much fun with my Axis X pros, so I just sold them bitches today. I'd like to find a lighter, more versatile set of sticks to transition into the park a ‘lil more. Ski 40% bumps, 35% backcountry/trees, and a mixed bowl for the rest. I'm 5'10 and weigh 190.
So far I am looking at PEs, Pocket Rockets, Scratch FS, and 1080s in the 175-181cm range. I am headed in the right direction?
thanks in advance...

I mean to say "not having as much fun" on the axis x pros. Should have mentioned that I'm an east coast kid and won't be seeing many 20 inch days.

nice setup, but they would cause me to get evicted at that price. I was offered a slightly used set of 04/05 Rossignol Scratch's 180cm with Scratch 140 bindings for $220. Don't think that I can turn that price down.
anyone skied em?

Is it the BC or FS? If you do not know, what color are they?

FS, I would like the BC.. but that is too much ski for West Virginia, where I will ski 70% of the time.
