Im workin all spring break to get a new pair of park skis. Im 5'10 and 145 and want a medium flexed park ski. Im gonna be mountin close to center and want them to be able to last a while and be good on landings on larger jumps. What ski would you guys recommend me?

take the dumont they will be sick for jumps not so much for buttering cuz they stiff, not damp stiff but like super poppy stiff, either that or the ar6 cuz those still kill it everywhere and are amazing in the park

my friend has the dumonts and loves them. they are very stable in the air. he's going skiing in utah and he's going to hit chad's gap so i'd say they're pretty for larger jumps.
