I am looking for a good all mountain ski and would like to know which skis to get. I am 5'3 and 120, and a fairly aggressive skier

It's the same ski. Green life just uses recycled stuff like base material and sidewalls.

I've heard the green life is a little bit stiffer, if so I would get the watch life

Why would they be stiffer? It's the same ski, just the Green Life uses recycled materials.

And in my opinion, if he's fairly aggressive and wants an all mountain ski, I (personally) would go stiffer.

Good. I had a pair of brand new Green Lifes, but I sold them, but while they were in my possession, I can tell you that they are not noodles, but medium-stiff ski.
Trust me.
