i have a pair of kung fujas and i love them, but they are heavy and not great for park. i was wondering if the domain or silencer was sort of like a smaller version of the kung fujas, because i want something lighter for park and for icy days (like this weekend at white pass)

If u want symmetrical go with the domain, but I really like the way the revivals ski, and was supprised how poppy they were for their construction. They r significantly stiffer than the fujas, but they do everthing in the park well

no...nothing about what you said is what he asked, and why are you asking for karma?


The Silencer is closer to the Fujas in shape (i.e directional), rocker profile (all-terrain rocker), and the way it skis. The Domain has a closer flex though. If you're looking for a "mini" Kung Fujas I'd say the Silencer is the closer pick than the Domain, and the Silencer will hold an edge on ice a bit better than the Domain as well because it's a bit stiffer and has a different sidecut/is directional.

I have a pair of the fujas and overall they are a great ski, i dont no if I would change. Plus... I think people who go in the park with slightly fatter skis looks sicker

THIS

yeah man i love my kung fujas in the park, dont really have problems with swing weight and they have a TON of pop. and they shred all mountain too. so, maybe head to the gym??

but, if you are looking for a lighter ski, look at salomon foils or suspects. but with lower swing weights you sacrifice durability... personally, id stay where you are.

wow, who the fuck asks for k when they bump and give total shit advice with 0 backing on why the op should get it? and btw, a-bangs suck

IMO, you should check out the K2 Silencer, it will hold up much better on ice then the domain because its stiffer and should shred the park too
