Alright, ive started several threads like this one, but ill give it one more try. Im interested in a rather snappy, park ski, that's still enough ski so that i don't overpower all over the mountain. Im 6'4" and 190 lbs.
Im leaning toward:
Ninthward Mik D pros or
181 AR5

Get the stiffer of the two, you a pretty big guy, and will probably be overpowering a soft ski.

i haven't skied either, so that isn't very helpful.

the ar5s are stiffer, and the mik ds are way too short for you anyways.

i think the ar5s will be a bit soft for you, 190 is a lot of lbs and ar5s arent stiff
go flex some skis at your store

i already have msps, and they're kinda bears in the park. I want a light snappy ski that i can really pop on.

i think a scale of snappy skis to softer skis, and stiffer skis to softer skis would be nice. Like with invaders at one end of the spectrum and mad trix or liberty at the other ya know?

If you want a snappy ski, get Liberty Stealths.
