alright, so i found new 06 ar5's for 255 and 07 ar6's for 299, is it worth it to buy the more expensive ar6's or are the ar5's virtually the same ski. oh yea, and i found 06 arv's for 299, im thinking about getting those, how are they for park?

ar6 is a big improvement, definately worth the$45. as for arv, it more of an all-mountain ski i think, i know its alot floppier, its also wider. ar6 would be better for park

how would keeping them longer matter if they are both new skis?

haha im like 5ft 11inches and 135 pounds.... i dont think the arv's would be best for park then. the 06 175 arv's are something like 88 underfoot and the 07 171 ar6's are 84 underfoot. i want a 50/50 park/all mountain ski that can also handle powder decently. so, should i get the 06 arv's or the ar6's?
