I am looking for new skis and im not sure what to get. i have looked at revivals, gotamas, and sir francis bacons. i ski at white pass so there isnt a lot of pow and i ski more all mountain than park, but i definitely want something bigger. what should i go with?

armada el reys, fatter in the tip and tail for some pow, 2.5 edges for all mountain, full cap construction for park, great durability and lightweight.

+k?

well if you ski "all mountain" meaning mostly on the groomers and somewhat off piste, i would not go with the bacons. shitty on hardpack.

if you want somthing that works good in the soft stuff as well as on hardpack, i would say the revivals. plus they are a badass park ski

gotcha. yea def not the bacons. too soft for high speeds. more of a pow ski. maybe the obsethed, or a prophet.
