I'm looking for a ski thats good in both mountain and park. I don't ski big just on my local mountain/hill. First year of freestyle.
I know about stiffness and side walls, but does anyone have experience with either of these and can tell me which is better quality or i should go with.
I don't care much for the design so thats not a factor

Give me some help

im on the disorderlys now and so far theyve been a fun ski. theyre supposed to be pretty flexy but id call them medium flex, im 140 lbs. only downside is the topsheet chips like crazy but its not really a big deal. also theyre symmetrical so keep that in mind depending on how much time youre going to be spending outside of the park.

welcome to ns, and remember if they are symetrical, do not, i repeat, do not mount them back from center

well i ride my old pair of addicts every now and then. never tried disorderlys but they are a park specific ski. addicts have some (not alot) of features that make them a all mountain ski. flexible enough that you can make a decent turn with the high meter turn radius. so addicts definately over disorderlys if you want a ski that can do both
