im currently riding on a pair of 04/05 chronics and i love them. they are way small tho, so im planniing on getting new skis next year. im looking at some fatter skis. i know that the chronics blends are going to hold up in the park and on rails, but i havnt heard much about the arv's. i couldnt find anything in the forum about how they hold up on rails. any suggestions?

arvs are the softest ski ever made, if you like to butter, get them. if you like to ski, dont.

Theyre stiffer than pocket rockets/guns according to many people.

thats exactly what i was thinkin bout. if i were to get arv's i would deff get this years, next years dont look half as nice. and if i were to buy this years arv's next year apposed to the blends the price would be so much cheaper...i just love how the chronics handle tho. the only way to decide is get out there and ride both of em i guess
