Which ski is a better buy for park/all mountain. I'm 5'9", weigh 130, and ski powder and park mostly.

i reckon the PE is a lil fatter sooo since you're doin a lil pow PE, otherwise they are pretty damn similar in what they'll do.

but unless you plan on puttin on some more weight while you have the skis the foils would be sweet for you. Although once you gain like 20 lbs you'll be wantin somethin stiffer so if you're growin quick its smart to go with the PEs

you don't know what you're talking about. 
karma's are 87 at the waist.
PE's are 85.
Karmas are a tad stiffer.  More people than not seem to love them. can't speak from expirience.
PE's are still pretty stiff.  i have a pair.  they are quite acceptable for everything.  they are, in fact, cheaper.  I would say your best bet would be to demo each pair. 
you may also want to consider mojos, since you seem to initailly pick out stiffer skis.
