hello,
i am terrible in the park and will probably never get any better so i am looking for a good all mountain twin.  suggestions???  i am about 6' and weigh 145lbs.  i was looking at the karma but that's not sold anymore...  should i check out the bridge?  salomon foil???  i was planning on buying new since my bro should be able to get a discount from backcountry.

thanks for the help

I really liked the 4FRNT MSP and Rossignol Brigade when I demoed last year.  The Foil is another choice that is a little more playful  (hope that makes sense).

I ski on 4frnt MSPs, and you can charge down anything. Groomers, trees, pow days... it doesnt matter

The Head Mojo 90's are awesome.
The Liberty Hazmat's also look like a perfect all mountain ski.

you could try and find some like 177 Karmas from last year, cause those are sick skis, way better than Publics imo. this year's Bridge is supposed to replace the karma, they are just a little wider. Also maybe look at Movement Kamasutra, Line Blends or Proph. 90s, Head Mojo 90, thats all ic an think of right now

I agree with what you guys were saying about getting a wider stiffer ski that will hold up all mountain. A lot of the skis you guys mentioned are for sale at http://www.thejibshop.com Check it out and see if you cna find that ski you are looking for.
