Im in need of a real good park ski again this year!!
im debating the Volkl walls which were rated the best ski of this year again
and the new Salomon Suspects, and were rated pretty much right under the Wall...
my question is, has any one rode the new suspects with the new wood core and whatnot???
and not being a symmetrical ski will it not ski as good switch??
and if anyone have ridden both, you notice the pop and duribilty of both??
any suggestion would be super dope...
thanks

nothing rides switch as well as a symetrical ski...... you can really tell a difference.

personally id go with the suspects, i've been riding solomon skis for a while... and i hate simetrical skis. because of the center mount.... its up to you... both amazing skis.

If id go with one. id go with the suspects:D

thast weird i've never heard of anyone hating symmetrical skis. if you plan on centermounting go with the walls, but if ur gonna be doing any light pow/all mountain with them go suspects

The Suspects are more versatile for riding all mountain, but if you're looking for a ski just for the park, I'd go with the Wall. I've skied both and you really can't beat a symmetrical twin in the park. They're better on rails, better switch, they're just better. That being said, the Suspects ripped. Salomon's new wood core designs are sick. They ski really well. I'd say the Suspects have more pop than the Walls, and the Suspects seem more durable too. Overall though, the symmetric design of the Walls makes it perform better in the park.

Yeah for myself only needing another park ski is really what I am looking for...
I have quite a few other skis for "all mountain"
I think i'll end up going with the Walls cuz the park aspect of the walls you can beat from what i've been hearing..
think i might go with a new park salomon ski next year if the suspect stays pretty bitchen..
Thank you very much guys!!
everyone got some karma that responded!!!

Hey i hope i am not to late. The Walls are a ton better in the park then the suspects. Walls got a ton more pop and ride perfect switch. They are probably the best park ski ive had the plesure of riding andi have rode on line chronics, armada halls, and volkl bridges. nothing compares to the walls
