I dunno if the ARV's are what you want if you're looking to simply go fatter in the park, probably Elziabeth's or Sir Francis Bacon's would be better in the park, but that's from what I've seem to have heard, I'm sure the ARV's are good in the park, but I think the other 2 are actually meant for park

I think Elizabeths would too fat. I would get them now, because you can find them a lot cheaper.

why do you need fatter in the park? fatter is for powder, not too much pow pow in the park.
Anything wider the 80mm is all the same in the park. Fat is just a fad (for park that is)

what are you talking about? First, ARV has a huge sidecut, so they work fine on hard pack. They are soft. They are great in the park, although not designed to do that.
Second, you recommended skis that both had HUGE waists and said they were better for park than skis with 15 and 20 mm waist less, respectively. You just recommended 110 mm and 115 mm waist skis, one of which isn't even out yet! ARVs are a great ski. But if you are looking for a park ski, I don't think that is what you are looking for.

haha no sorry you actually said "meant for the park". BUahhh. Yes, 115 mm waist park skis. Those are much easier to throw around than T-halls or Fujatives... I appreciate you trying to help, but why are you making recommendations that you know nothing about?

meh I said I wasn't 100% sure, but what I've read I took the impression that those skis were made to be in the park just as much as the pow. And if you're getting fatter why not go really fat, what's the point of getting fatter park skis that are only 5mm bigger, might as well go all out sorry bro

5mm really makes a difference. they are a lot heavier and there was like 20mm difference, so that ALOT heavier.
