I can get them for a good price but I'm not sure wich one should I choose...

Im 6'0, 163lbs. Been skiing for 20 years, and I'll be doing 20% park 60% all mountain 20% BC.

So I need and allmountain ski wich will be fine for Park and BC..

I'm a bit scared about the wall since they're symetrical skis, should I mount them true center ? How will they feel carving and in the BC ?

How about If I mount them back ? Will they feel weird ?

If you want them to go everywhere go with AR6 at -2.5, that is what Armada Recommends. The wall is an excellent ski in the park and even on groomers, but it probably wont be very good out back, where as the AR6 can go to the BC to play around cause of the soft and wide (not really wide, but wide enough) nose.

from what ive heard this year the wall is saposed to be a great ski i have the 08 walls the ones with green sidewalls and i love them, really durable, and really cool graphics. i personally dont like the graphics on the 2010 walls but thats your choice still super durable great ski hope this helps :)

Thanks man!

Where did you mount them? Do you ride mainly park or do you do groomers and BC too ?

Walls are symmetrical and mounting them anywhere but center is just dumb.

Then you should get AR6 instead and mount them at recommended.
