whats your height, weight, maybe some more info... obSethed is a good all around ski, the arv is a good all around ski too. Alot also has to do with what kinda ski you like, if you want something stiff or soft or somewhere in the middle.

If you know youa re getting another pair next year get a park or pow specific ski this year that way next years ski won't overlap as much. So go one or the other, a one ski quiver is never as good as 2 pairs of skis. Trust me I have 3 pairs.
