I basically do pretty much all park

Should I get AR6's this year models or last years, ARV's this years model or lasts, or the 4frnt MSP's?

I've been kind've out of the loop and haven't realy been following this or last years stuff.

Well out of those three the AR6s are the only true park skis and damn good ones i might add
the ARV and MSPs are more all mountain focussed skis but if you want a pure park ski you should look into not just AR6s but Line Afterbangs, Armada T Halls, Volkl Walls, Liberty LTE, etc and find something you like

I'm 5'9" and I weigh 140lbs

And I want skis that are basically all around good park skis both good for tables and rails. Ones that can flex, pop, and are light weight nicely.

AR6s sound like the best - they are kinda heavy, but if you through a lightweight binding on it, you wont really notice that much. AR6s kill it everywhere though and they're super durable, doesn't matter which year you get to much so I would go for the 09s cause they'll be cheaper.

I would say go for the Liberty LTE. It's lighter and ever bit as durable. 3 year warranty.
