I'm 15, 126 pounds and ski 50 groomers 50 powder...
I'm looking for a new pair of *cheap skis that'll go anywhere. That said, I own some Fujatives now and ride park 3 times a season max, but they're so fun and forgiving on and off piste so some flexy twins might be in my sights...
I've looked at ARVs and Kung Fujas (I'm liking the look of the Fujas, cheap and good reviews)
So what do you guys think?

Get this years 169 fujas. I love mine, they can ski anything... Deep pow to the park and they will feel solid and be really fun wherever you go. If you can only have 1 ski get those

Kung Fujas are awesome for only one pair of skis, and unless you get powder(12''+) all the time Bluehouse MRs are amazing

Salomon Lords. Seriously. I've been riding them for two seasons and absolutely love them. I know salomon gets some shit for their skis but these things are great. I've skied thigh deep powder before with them (im 6'2 for reference) and they are amazing. They handle extremely well on groomers also. I love haulin ass and carving down groomers so these things fit me so well. The fat head on it plows through slush or whatever shit is on the trail. I absolutely love these skis and recommend them to everybody. PM me if you have any more questions, i'd be more than happy to answer

I have the Blends and their fantastic. I ski on Hood, so theres a mix of conditions every year, and the blends hold up fine, I even took them touring and they were great, good flotation, good flex, and stiff enough to land 40 footers
