I'm not sure if they will be better or lot, but I like them a lot more than my friend's PE's

Yes, I have the skis you are looking for, they are 158 Scratch Pro's with bindings, a great all mountain, park, and pipe ski. They're on eBay now.

it depends on your preferance. i mean, decide if you want a soft or stiff ski, then just read about the skis, most are pretty defined in terms of soft/stiff/medium. what are you looking for in terms of price? and do you do rails a lot, or are you mostly jumps/pipe

im thinking 08 invaders or 08 thrusters. even though they are complete opposites. my friend is sponsered by salomon and he could get the thrusters in the summer for like 100 bucks

PEs are not good park skis, learn what you're talking about. they are damp, and have no pop, which makes them good all mountain, but not so hot in the park. the best ski k2 makes for park would be silencers. fujatives are too soft. invaders would be decent. it depends what you;re looking for, AR6s, trouble makers and STLs are all great in park without being terrible all mountain.

i do agree that the PEs are no good but the fujas is way better then the silencer, that ski is for more ot the intermediat good skier not so good at park skier.

and in what way are fujis better, silencers have decent pop and a stable but not stiff flex. fujis are wet noodles that snap and wash out, and are in no way poppier. a lot of the people on k2s team choose the silencer over fujis for park.

they're 80, same dimentions as the original PEs. it's not like widdth helps with park skiing much, the only thing is it gives you more surface area to land on, while making it harder to switchup and spin.
