both are great options and about the same ski, it hink it comes down to personal preference on this one...

Both skis are stiff and reliable. I guess it comes down to price?

go for the chronics dude. el rey's are supposed to be armada's low end ski and probably wouldn't last as long as chrons.

i would except that my local shop only stocks the el rey, and not the chronics, i miht get them shipped in or something, but then they'ed be more expensive, so im not really sure at all...i might just buy the el rey, because my head's are completly trashed and i need a new ski :S

i would totally disagree with that^. my buddy has the el reys and hes rode them all season including a trip out to jackson and they are in perfect shape. bomb proof so far.
but over all, chronic is stiffer.
and i favor line
