I'm trying to decide what skis to get next year. I ski mostly ski alot of park, some groomers and some B.C when I get the chance. I need something that will hold an edge on ice and be stable at high speeds. With that being said... I was thought Armada AR5 but i dont have any other ideas....HELP!

people on here have such hard times making their own decisions.

i'd say just get something and see how you like it then after you do that enough you'll have lots of knowledge about all different skis and you'll know exactly what you like and don't like.

no way, he said mostly park and why would you use pow skis?... a few great skis for you would probably be an STL, Foil, AR5 or Chronic

the STL is an amazing ski, has lot's of pop and is light...it would probably be my pick

msp or mojo 90 would be a sick park ski. it just depends on what he likes but obviously he doesn't know what he likes cuz he's asking us what kind of ski he should buy.

I know exactly what I like but I dont live near a place that demos the types of skis that might suit me, and I'm sorry I can't afford to just go out and spend $500 and then not like the way they ride, thats why I ask you guys because maybe you have a pair that you could recommend...whoa thats a rant

buy some of last year's skis. nobody really changed their designs too much. unless you get a ski that they changed the design then just spend less money and get last year's. save money and have the same ski just diff. graphics.

No, not the Mojo 90. But i'll say mojo 80. they'd do their duty for you.
