I found a pretty cheap source, and they sell 05/06 Armada ar5's 181cm for $250, and Line chronic/line chronic wide 187 for $300. Out of those two which one should i buy. Im 6'0 185lbs, 65% park and 35% groomers.

being as your over half park id go with the armadas. cheaper price and they probably would fit better than the chronics even tho they both are tight ass skis.

if you live in the west, get the chronic wides, there's no question, if you live east or midwest i'd say it's a toss up, if you plan on actually skiing some steeper terrain or pow with them, then definitely chronic wides.

i live on the east coast. There isnt really any pow around where i live but might go on a trip somewhere that does. Most of the skiing will be done on hard pack. As far as the edges go , which one would last longer: chronic or ar5. Also, which one is softer since im 6'0 185

chronics are pretty dern stiff, both will be sick in the park. I think I'd go chronics for the stiffness although ar5s aren't too noodley, at least I'm assuming judging by the flex of the ar6, I dont know much about actual ar5s.
