im looking to by salomons, i dont know wich ones to get because i have herd not so good reviews on the suspect. if i dont think its the best to get ill probs get the halo/alpha1/ar7. im into jumps and some rails. not too big on rails but i can do them.

if you don't hit rails very often, then you'd be fine with the suspects, i loved them on the jumps until they broke on the rails this year and they were 2011. but either way stay away from Salomon ha

I would definetely buy armadas instead of salomon! Just bought the halo's and they are for sure the most fun ski I have ever skied on! They work so well for skiing on jumps and also great for rails! Only skied a couple of days on them but have not found a single thing I dislike about them yet!

i perosnally love salomons.  i had thrusters, dumonts, and now i have another pair of dumonts in the mail.  I have had other skis in between them and i have always gone back to the salomon,  Although they dont really have the best edges for rails, considering my last pair of dumonts i had had lost 3 of the 4 edges beneath the boot.  But i love the feel, perfect flexibility to me and i like the capped edges.

I have armada ar7s and they are so awesome they are simply incredible they pop like crazy and are soo light because of the ar50 construction that puts sidwall cunstruction under foot so it has controll to carve with and durability but the cap in the tip and tails keep it super light. They are everything one would want in a ski look on the armada website and get learned soloman sucks armada is awaome

I got halos and there ill nasty on everything the reason i love armada personally is because they not only know how to add genius tech to there skis but there bombproof never had a bad chipped up pair of armada anything

Salomon is not very good
