what should i get? i'm looking to get somethign under $500. i live in the midwest where ice rules the hill. i am 5'10" ish and 150ish. i have been skiing 179 05-06 fujatives for three seasons now and i like them but i'd like to try something different. i ski mostly park. i'm not terribly aggressive pretty chill but i would like it to be able to carve like a mofo outside of the park as well. suggestions please.

sounds like ur looking for a new england twin tip?
rossi scratch ghetto holds up pretty well on icy stuff
my PEs carve like a mofo, but they're also a good 900 pounds so not great in the park

 i would defiantly look into the rossi ghettos, i love mine(scratch fs wrs), i have fujis too and the ghettos ski outside of the park way way better than the fujis..
i would keep the fujis if you have the choice, i still use mine a fair amount of time, (so much fun to screw around on)

if you are ever out at PR shoot me a PM and you could try out my scratches..
