i think the only difference between the 2 is that the fujatives are really soft and the ar5s are like medium stiff nothing crazy. there both kind of heavy thow

the ar5s are a much better all-mountain and park ski. the ar5s is the hell of a lot stiffer than the fujative, meaning it carves better. i guess it's personal preference wether or not you like a stiffer or softer ski for park.

Sure dude. Last I checked, it makes most sense to get what works for you, not according to what your friend bought.

i have fujis, and they are 100% all park. as soon as edges are detuned or rounded at ALL you slide and cannot get on edge. its like being whipped in a tube behind a boat. actually its exactly like that, but with skis on, and on snow not water (and no boat)
