WHAT KIND OF SKI DO YOU WANT :
Hoping for park skis good on the mountain to. I know any ski can do anything but i dont want an all jib ski like the abangs. I had armada el reys 157 until a week or two ago when i lost one in deep pow, I cant wait till summer for skis and they were getting a little short

I AM LOOKING FOR A PARK SKI THAT IS ALSO GOOD ON THE WHOLE MOUNTAIN. I also want to be able to still ski freshy pow. I want to get more twords the park then the el reys were. Looking for low 160's for length. Center mounted for park

171 Jeronimo's, they're not at any local shops but you can pick them up straight from the factory here in Portland.
