So i've started freestyle about two years ago. Havent had a chance to ski all last year since i was a year abroad. Now I'm more then stoked to go ski this Winter but i don't have any Twintips yet. SO now im looking for some good ones. that are about 90 mm in the middle and they shouldnt cost more then about 450 bucks or 350 euros. I have seen two i like so far. If you can recommend them or suggest others i dont care they should just be good for a fairly new freeskier.

Thanks

BTW: Im mostly skiing in the ALPS. Usually PARK but if there is enough snow ill also go for the POW and some BACKCOUNTRY KICKER. i am 17 years old, about 5'11 inches tall or 1 metre and 81 cm tall. id say im a PRETTY GOOD skier and ski almost everything except big mountain. The rest is already in the first post

id check out the line step up, blend, and afterbang. all great skis from what i know, and from what i've heard hold their own in powder. also line skis are never terribly expensive.

I'd go for the ON3P Jeronimo, the K2 Kung Fujas, Rossignol S3, or Line Blend.  To me, it sounds like you need more of an all mountain ski, and those are all pretty good ones.  They are all between 96 and 102 mm underfoot, and will do well in park and powder.

The LIne Afterbang is one i already thought that might be it. The Price is good and the shape too. I'd love to get the Kung Fujas but its probably too expensive. The S3 looks interisting too. IF somebody has anymore that are a little more parkoriented id be grateful. Ill buy me some real pow skis next season. Thanks for the Tips so far.

Ya no kidding. Go for blends they are wicked and they have slight early rise this year.

you could always get last years models too, the kung fujas would be really good. or the blend.

The Thall. Is a lil to slim in the middle i think. Plus im not that big of a tanner fan so rather not but thanks. And Plastic bag. I've seen in one of the local ski shops the kung fujas from last year and the year before and they're way to expensive. but thanks.
