Hey i was looking for a new park ski that i'll be able to stick with for a while. Just wondering about any good durable park skis that i would be happy with for the next bunch of my park years. Any suggestions?

We need some information...

How much time do you spend in the Park?
Height?
Age?
Weight?
Skiing ability?
Money willing to spend?

I've got Armada skis and they're just holding up superbly right now. They've gone through some unhealthy stuff and they're holding up nicely. So, in my opinion, Armada skis are pretty good.

Of course, everyone has their own opinions and recommendations...

The halos/Alpha1s are pretty sick. They're got park rocker so they're playful and buttery, but can also stay stable on jumps. Halos are softer then the Alpha1s however...

Or you can go with the THalls, or AR7s which are just normal cambered.

Again, that's just Armada.
