Right now I have the Line 1260's and they are pretty good, but at high speeds they seem to chatter alot which I would translate into unstability. I'm looking for a twin tipped ski that I can take all over that is good at high speeds and better at carving than the lines. I guess you could say I'm looking for an all purpose twin tipped ski. My top choices going on reviews are the Public Enemies, Trouble Makers, or the Armada ar5's. Just looking for opinions which of these would be better for what I am looking for, or if there wouldn't be much of a difference from the Lines. Thanks.

If you are looking for Stability, then maybe take a look at the new '04 Atomic Tweak, they are a little wider than last years....and are a little stiffer than what you are used too. Or possbilby look at the Volkl V Pros...I just bought a pair, and I have heard pretty good things about them as far as all around twin tip goes.

Thanks for the responses. I ended up going with the troublemakers. I'm pretty sure they will be better for all-mtn. than the 1260's.

no doubt about it, the 1260s werent designed at all for all mountain, theyre pretty much a jib specific ski

pretty much anything (except 1080s) is going to be more stable than 1260s, so you really have a lot of options
