Armadas probably have a better pow selection, but volkl walls are epic.

I personally prefer Volkl's and my favorite ones are Bridge's.  Armada Arv's are good choice for me too.

This years Volkl Bridges are the best park focused all mountain skis on the market. Combination of low profile early rise, flat camber, wideness and stiffness make them awesome everywhere. I had mine for a season and didnt have any complaints.

I heart Volkl, Chopsticks and Walls are awesome, and I have some new Gots as a touring setup. Did really like the Pipecleaners I had last year though.

it broke my heart when they ruined the bridge with early rise and flat camber.

i was checking those out and yeah i felt the early rise/flat camber would be great for some situations but shitty in others... on a related note, OP, i went with ARVs instead and i love them..

For park the walls and t-halls/ar7s are so bomb. Basically just personal preference and I love armada. Also I feel like chopsticks are great but armada have a much larger pow selection

im trying to help a friend pick out skis, we ski on the east coast, mostly park, but a little bit of everything. So far hes looked at bridges, walls, T-halls, and halos, i suggest walls but what do you guys think? And by east i mean New york and massachusetts witha weekend or two in vermont, so not much pow or anything
