Hey sorry if this is a repost but what do you guys think is the best armada park ski or give your input on each ski. First of all I had the thalls last year and i thought they were too soft and they broke so I got the ar7s and i thought they were great but just a tad too stiff 

What are your guys thoughts on the pipe cleaner, halos, alpha 1s, and the pipe cleaner.  Whats your favorite one for park?

thanks

I have the Alpha 2's.  I love the early rise/ camber combination and how lite they are.  Only 2 things that would make em better is a little more width at the waist and have them be a little softer.

according to the chart on armada's site the alpha 1's will have the same stiffness as AR7's and last years thalls were listed as the same flex as the halos...so your sorta stuck IMO. but ive never ridden any of these besides the AR7's so i dont know from personal experience

The new 2012 thalls are stiffer then they were last year so that might help. The halos are alittle softer then the thalls and the alphas are stiff like the ar7. the pipe cleaners are alittle stiffer like the ar7 just a faster base. then the elrays are inbetween the thalls and ar7 but closer flex to the thalls.     thewhiteroom

Like the whiteroom said, the thalls are stiffer this year so i'd say would should give them an other shot. This are going to be a bit softer then the ar7 but not by that much so they should be great for you.
