 Hey yall.  I am looking for a new park ski to buy, and I really dont know what to look for.  I have a pair of old mad trix that i have always used in the park, a twin tip but but not really the best park ski.  I ask you all to help me out cause i really dont know what to look for when it comes to the park, i can do tricks, backflips 5s 3s 1s yada yada but i mostly do that stuff in the BC on my hell bents.  I am 6..1 and  215 with a really aggressive ski style, used to race for a long time.  Helpo me outo.?  Thanks yo

All of those skis are so different....

I would rule out the invader right now because you will bend those in half at 215.  The AR6 and the TNK are more reasonable, the TNK is stiffer and faster and the AR6 is softer and more of an all around ski.  My favorite is tied between the two pretty closely, but if I had to choose I would go with the TNK.

hey, i use to have invaders, i really liked them for urban rails, but they really dont hold up well on jumps, and are very squably with speed.

im now using line anthems and they are by far the best park ski ive roden yet, there stable, flexible and good with the butters, much more confident on them... just my opinion

i would say walls, they are pretty stiff and real responsive, perform well all over the mountain. plus they kill it in the park
