don't know what to get, my heart was set on the 2009 Ar6's but i read a review that they are bad for anything but park. i weigh 140 5'8" and i need a ski that is 60% park 40% all mountain / powder , Last skis i had were 2006 PE and used them for park in the midwest and 5 weeks out west, i need a ski as good as this but more park oriented

Dude the Ar6 is def not bad out of the park.  It's actually quite awsome (bumps crud trees etc.), doesnt float the best but cmon, ur from the midwest, ull be fine.  

If ur strictly set on getting something that can float for outwest, then get another ski.  U cant find a super quick, poppy and snappy park ski if ur looking for ski good in pow.  I mean thats not entirely true, but ur gonna have to make a sacrafice somewhere.  Plenty of fat skis are good (really good) in the park but if u want a roided out ski used in comps for bigger spins, Lizzies arent excacty gonna cut it.

Again it really depends on how much of a high quality, spinnable etc. park ski u want.  If u dont need something for switch 10's then ur options are huge.

I feel like Im gonna get a lot of heat for this post.  (This is an opinion remember, haha : /)
