ok so i am in need of new skis. Before we get started my basic info is im 5"9/5"10 140lbs. I speend probablly 95% in the park and want a ski that will be flexy so i can have fun buttering around the mountain but will stop jumps when landing forward and backward. I have thought about atomic punxs, line afterbangs, line anthems, Ar6s and am open to any other skis. What would be the best ski for me?

You don't want Atomics.

I do too. It's only the top sheet that does. This is because they are wooden, and it doesn't effect the preformance of the ski.

if you want a pair of atomics look at the patents. still a symetrical park ski just a little wider.
