im buying new skis for the 08-09 season and have my choices narrowed down to 2
the 08 line blends or 08 k2 silencers. i ski all mountain and some park. I have seen the prices of $275 for the blends and $200 for the silencers. which ski would be better?

Those are two very different skis, but the blends would be a better all mountain ski.

silencers are a cheap pricepoint ski.   The blends are a better ski

True.

The Blend can handle both - the Silencers have always seemed to me a price-point park ski.  The Blends are a higher quality shred stick.  Go slay gnar on some Lines!
