Alright guys, before I get a bunch of hate for this thread, let me say I use to frequent NS a lot before I got banned so I know this is kind of a shitty thread but I cant FUCKING decide.
should I be getting surface double times for 300, k2 revivals for 400, or icelantic da nollies (and which year?) for however much I could find them for?
I've been torn on this for months and all my friends are biased on certain brands and all that, what should I do?

I'm a park rat that doesnt exactly kill it, and I'm a whistler/ west coast skier with years and years of pow and all mountain experience, blahblahblah I want straight up park skis that I can take everywhere else when I feel like it.
THANK YOU

Height, weight etc? I ride walls and love them for everything, tad bit stiffer than a normal park ski so they kill it on groomed too. But they may not suit you.

My buddy rides the double times and hasn't had any issue...he loves em....they are unique though....kinda wide underfoot for a dedicated park ski but if ya like that feel I'd say go for it because one their cheap and two surface has real decent customer service so if an issue arises at least ya can talk to somebody....but I'd also consider the cryptos....I loved that ski for park

This. I bought my Volkl Walls the first year they came out and havent looked back since. They absolutely kill it in the park, they turn quick on groomers, glide through pow, and are the most playful ski I have ever ridden. Not only that, but to top it off they are TOUGH AS NAILS. Mine have lasted me 4 seasons and I put them through a beating.

If $300-400 is your price range, then buy a leftover pair from last year, you wont regret it.
