i ride the stl's and they should be fine in powder.  alot of pro's use the stl and tnk for backcountry booters so it must be alright.  ive skiied my 177's in pow and they were fine.

i had the ar5 last year (think it's really similar to the ar6) and have the 4frnt stl now, the stl is a lot better for park in my opinion and softer than the ar6. In pow i have no idea, haven't the chance yet to ride the stl in pow but i think for little bit bc it will work, ar6 worked.

I wouldnt say that, but I slightly agree.

Im not a hard skier, and Ive gone through 2 sets of Armadas in under 2 seasons. Hwoever, they back thier product up with a great warranty system, so its a toss up.

Both would be great skis, I would just go with whichever you can get cheaper.
