im looking into new skis and am looking at the blue steels from on3p  the jibs from moment and the antidogmas( dont feel like looking up the spelling) from amplid. i am wondering what one has the best durability and would be right for me. i ski pretty much only park 50% rails 50% jumps i curently have atmic punx and love them

on3p uses all around better materials(rase base, bamboo core, thicker edges) and have much fewer reported durability issues

amplid has some pretty bad durability issues from what ive seen, and moment's park skis aren't that strong also from what ive seen, my friend's rockers didnt hold their shape long at all and the edges are pretty thin for a park ski, also moment has some delam issues

Amplid skis are actually super durable. They have only had a few pairs of dogma's break EVER! which is pretty amazing. Also they have a 2 year warrenty, which is also very uncommon for a pair of park skis. If your talking about edge issues. Every skis is gonna have edge issues if you hit a shit ton of rails, especially if you dont detune.. I would go with Amplid! Or Moment, those guys are nice to deal with

Yeah my Rockers got way rockered out throughout the season. The edge is fine though, received quite a few edge cracks though. Not as many as my friend's VOlkl Walls though...

Those are all great options, but since you said you love the Punx I would recommend the Blue Steele. You will appreciate the speed (you don't want to go to a slower ski, it sucks once you've had a fast one) and they are very durable. I haven't flexed or ridden this year's BS, but if it is stiffer than last year's it will probably appeal to you in that category as well.

If you decide on Moment I think you would be pleased as well. I haven't had the pleasure of riding that ski, but they have incredible feedback and you would be able to support another great company who works out of the US.

And of course the most important item: the graphics on these two skis look awesome.

Sorry for the small threadjack here, but how stiff was last years? i heard it was around the flex of an anthem or a punx?

Similar to an AR6, not an Anthem.

The Anthem is like...uselessly soft. It folds like a bitch off 30 foot jumps.
