Lizzies with griffins. No ski is more fun than those.

189 One lifes are mad fun.

171 invaders, one of the best park skis ever made, wish mine were 178's.

Bindings are FKS 18's

But the most fun skis I've been on are the

ON3P caylor and 4frnt VCT. If i had to have a two ski quiver, this would be it.

normal ski- Salomon BBR (so damn fun) park ski- AR6's, not a single complaint, except for when they rockered themselves.

K2 kung fujas 09/10 def the funniest. But the best one was the salomon 3v, not a twin tip, but they are very good for carving loved them

I really miss my OG extra soft Tacoma Caylors (RIP) Made it to ~=140 days before I landed on ice and bent one of them.

The day at Hood on Pillow Fights with 38" was pretty sick too!

The 08 JJ's before the rocker/new shape, probably the most versatile ski ever made. Stiff and super durable it did everything. Hopefully the new tst will take its place.

I couldnt pick a best ski. Thats what I like about skis, there is no "best." Depending on conditions and skiing style, there could be many different solid choices.

My favorites were:

190 Greener Pro w/rockered tips and tails
192 Elan 777
165 Elan SLX

The Greeners were amazing skis for KHMR.  Shredded pow, killed the crud, and hauled ass on the groomies.  Super durable for the "Rocky" mountains. 
 
My binding of choice is the s916.  Not the new STH16, the old-ass classic 916.  I have about eight pairs of them.

What do you mean? i fucking love my anthems! iv tried K2 silencers and Twalls but i dont like them as much. when it comes to pow then I like hellbents alot but at my montin there is like NO powder! so im a big park rat that likes hitting smaller jumps and lots of rails.

twalls? do you mean thalls?

Anthems are so shitty. Cap construction, extruded base. Neither of those things belong here in the best ski list IMO

What? I've owned many different types of skis, including anthems. Trust me when u say there are better choices out there for jibby skis. If you like your anthems and want to keep skiing the same skis all the time then so be it, but you are holding yourself back.

^ meant to quote laserbeams. It seems this thread was created so a bunch of people can pat eachother in the back for owning anthems or invaders.
