Is it the AR6, T-Hall, or Athem to replace Fujative?

Blew out an edge on my '07-'08 178 Fujatives at the end of last season and need to pull the trigger on a new pair of park sticks this week.

Liked the Fujatives in the park but also liked their ability to handle it all over the mountain too when skiing with friends.

Thought the K2 Extremes were going to be the answer but they seem much stiffer than the Fujatives when hand flexing them, and I need decent rail performance.

So is it:

'08-'09 Armada AR6 @ $299
'08-'09 Line Anthem @ $329
'08-'09 Armada T-Hall @$329

SO?

ar6s for sure great park ski and they can shred the mountain plus there the cheapest. the anthems might be a little too flimsy for groomers if u ask me and the t-halls are ok I guess but i would def go with the ar6s last years models were dope looking too

The AR6 is going to be the best all-over ski on the list. The Anthem and THall are softer, but not by much, and also go everywhere pretty well.

All those skis are absolutely dope. I would recommend AR6's because I've heard good things about their all mountain capabilities and they are cheapest, but you really can't go wrong with any of those.

Big ups for the quick responses!

Sounds like AR6 might be the winner.

Just to be sure, are there any models I might be missing?  Anybody else got something that fits this bill?

AR6s would be sweet. You also might look at the Alpha 1/2

ar6's are sweet. i've ridden fleets skis and i'd put the walls and ar6's top of my list and i've owned 3 sets of ar6's. But i do think the next set of skis i'm gonna get are gonna be alphas so if you can find a good deal on them i'd seriously consider them in your ski search. they're not as good all mountain as the ar6s but for park they're on top.
