Hey guys, it's almost ski season here in the Northeast, and I have a dilemma...what is the better ski if...
Weight=165lbs
Height=6'0''
Ability=III
Mount=Modern Park/Freestyle
Ski Size=181cm
80% Park, 20% the rest
?Any comments? I know the Scratch has a sick "Rocking Chair" effect, and with its WRS it's lighter, but I heard the AR6 is tough and stays poppy for a long time. However, the graphics don't compare...the AR6 has so much going on while the Scratch doesn't...so, which ski do you guys recommend for me?

One Scratch WRS 181 weighs 1730g.
One AR6 181 weighs 1950g.
I have weights of almost all the skis in all sizes...

scratches are incredibly light, and have TONS of pop with crazy sweet flex points near the tips and tails. not saying ar6's are bad by any means, but a lot of people on here tend to like armada a little more than most other companies. anywho, both super sick skis, should be happy with both.

Hmm...I'm still stuck about the weights now...how much does 200 grams really feel? It's only .4 pounds or so...
...do any of you know which holds up at higher speeds better, and which can take jumps better?

well, the flex on the scratch fs is pretty soft... very soft in tips and tails, and stiffer underfoot. i don't know how thalls flex, but i do know that the new scratches can ollie and butter like mad.
