so my friends. I've been in the market for some new skis so i've done some research. im lookin for a light jibby ski thats just straight up fun. i'm not gonna go hittin anything above a 30 fter so it doesnt have to slay the biggys like the JO pro. I mainly hit urban and rails. my research has come up with the liberty LTE as a good candidate, as well as the atomic punx, and the surface nine lifes. oh and i heard good things about the afterbang but it was also brought to my attention that theyre pretty damn heavy.

never rode em but ive only heard amazing things about these skis.
Line Chronics are personally the best ski I have ever rode, they are fairly light, verry poppy, and have that Line durability.
Other good skis would be last years Abangs for sure, I have heard this years have a tough base that gets kinda slow, but I rode last years for a while and they were super fun on rails.
Bluehouse Antics might be another way to go. Almost bought a pair, and any of the ski testers would personally give you great feedback on em. One of them told me it would be the ski for me, and I ride the same as you, so definitely check them out if they are not already sold out.

i'd look at walls or punks, volkl and atomic, respectively. both fit what you need, and you can buy older models to save some cash. or look at old invaders too, super cheap

if you're smart about it. ask for pics detailed pics on the skis, with date and username next to it (if that tickles your fancies), check the persons feedback in their profile, and don't send money as a gift on paypal so you can file a claim if anything does go wrong.
