Another Ski question

ill tell you this. i've been skiing my armada ar6s this year for 15 days or so of easy skiing. i love how they ride, so much fun, light, buttery/ playful, good swing weight, etc. however, i already have 2 edge pullouts and the topsheet can chip easily down to the core, but the chipping is nothing some gorilla glue cant fix. ive heard that armadas edges can be either very strong or they suck...so kinda luck of the draw

Being someone whose ridden both I'll say both are SUPER fun skis to ski. AR6s are gonna be the better groomer and jump ski, while Abangs are gonna be more fun on rails and to jib all over the mountain. I was hitting a 50 footer with my Afterbangs this past weekend and the held up extremely well and didn't really wash out at all. It's tough to really pick between the two, they're both pretty durable, and they both ski very well. The easiest way to decide is if you want a Symmetrical ski go with Abangs, if not go with AR6s. Knowing that your coming from Dogmas (which is the last ski I skied before Abangs, and before them I skied AR6s) you might have to get used to the Abangs softness cause Dogmas are pretty stiff profiled, but once you get used to that they're golden.

thanks to both of you, btw how do the Abangs edges hold up??

I cracked em on a rock that was coming out from under the snow (didn't see it and went to quickly stop and rode right over it sideways cracking both edges), but other than that they're holding up pretty well. One of the skis actually has two cracks underfoot and the section shows no sign of a pull out.
