I would say P3, they are a little softer but not as wide. And they are super cool, but since they are such a new company to skis I might want to go with a trusted ski company. I say ar6.

I didnt know that. I thought that they only started selling them in the US just last year. I could be wrong though, I am wrong a lot.

You weigh 150lbs and ski 90/10 Park all mountain.

The 178cm P3 is an ideal ski for someone who weighs 180+lbs and skis closer to 10/90 Park All mountain.

It is stiffer than any other twin on the market and not a good park ski for hardly anyone ESPECIALLY a 150lbs kid such as yourself.

The AR6 is a much better choice for you, and get the 176cm.
