So pretty much the only ski that I can still get off evogear in my size  (181) at outlet prices is the scratch ghetto, should I spend like $250 on that or spend the extra to get this years Chronic's or AR6's?

I know alot about the Chronic but not really much about the Ghetto other than its an all mountain/park ski.  Will it handle powder as well as the Chronic?  Which ski is stiffer?  Durability? I need a ski for like 60% all mountain/40% park.  6'2 190lb if it makes a difference.

1st. evo is baller, and you should definitely buy from them
2nd. ghettos are supposed to be really good for park at least, and capable to rip all mountain
3rd. you're going to save a ton of money

i say go for it, even though i do really like my ar6s.

Yeah I'm pretty convinced I'm going to do it.  I figure $200 for a $600 pair of skis is better than $450 for a $450 pair of skis.

Are Marker 12.0 freeski bindings a good choice for mounting them?  I wanted to get the look 12 jibs but evogear sold out of last year's.
