i am buying some new skis, i ski basically all mountain but kinda want a more so park ski. i like the domains, as they do have jib rocker. i defiantly want a rockered park ski. should i get the domains or is there any other suggestions?

Next year's K2 Revolver (I think that's the name?) is pretty cool. But tons of ski companies are doing rockered park-ish all-mountain skis this year.

Yea i wana know this too: i am like 5"7, 145 and im intermidiate skier. I ski 100% park. I already have urban skis but woild like mine to be pretty tough. I ski more jibs like 70% jibs. Is the domain right for me.

That's the one. Looks pretty cool. Hand-flexing it seemed a little more lively than the old Revival/Extreme/PE but that's just my take on it.

Yeah it sounds pretty good for you. The jib rocker makes rail tricks really easy, and I found that they were the perfect stiffness, buttery but stable. Plus I have never seen a pair with any major damage

No the revival is gone, replaced by the recoil.
The Recoil is a good ski, it felt lighter than most K2s I've been on and more responsive/poppy. I found them too stiff for my personal liking but it felt like a good ski.

Yeah. It is a bit stuffer and wider than the domain, more jump oriented. I haven't ridden it yet but my friend switched from the domain to the recoil about halfway through last year, so it must be a pretty good ski
