4FRNT MSPs are a great all around ski. They're stiff and stable so they're perfect for big jumps. The little bit of extra width lets you float on those pow days and they can definitely charge too. The turn radius is great for laying down solid and long high speed carves too.

I ride Liberty Hazmats or AR6's. Not had the Hazmats in the pow yet, but they are a pretty wide ski under foot. The AR6's are great and will go anywhere and do anything...

Walls, extremes, Dumonts, Kung Fujas. We have them all right now and our site has some great videos explaining the different skis in basic terms. Check em out.

http://www.park2peak.com/Twin_Tip_Skis_s/60.htm

I personally would recommend the Volkl Walls. Have them. Ski them every ski day. LOVE THEM!

Hazmats fit the description perfectly.  Wide enough for pow, but the bamboo core fuggin rips in the park.  3 year warranty. do it.

Do not get suspects! they are only good for the first 5 times. My edges have blown out twice, and the base is coming off. They are only good if you are sponsored by them when you can get new skis frequently
