I just got one of my good freinds hooked on skiing this year and he said he was looking into getting a pair of skis and of course twin tips are the way to go. I dont know a ton about skis so i was wondering if anyone knew anything that could help my freind find a nice ski. He skis basically just groomers some trees and basiccally not much park but i think hes looking to progress in that a little. Hes about like 5'6 like 100 pounds not an agressive skier at all. Thanks everyone much appreciated

well, i have the atomic panic ski, its great all around, has an 87 mm waist and is 2/3 cm back so all mountain is perfect for it, it also isnt that expensive:), look for a good binding too (FKS/marker)

I have always liked the Armada AR5/6/7 as a great all around park ski for all levels. Still have my AR5's in fact.
