Be the master of your domain...you have 2 feet so get 1 of each.

don't forget social security number.

But in all seriousness, I think the k2s are a better built ski than the lines. just my opinion though.

you forgot about his credit cards csc

There are a huge amount of factors, because of this thread I would say that the mastermind is a better fit for you.

this thread is a lil stupid so far. masterminds are a cap construction entry level park ski with tradish camber and non symmetrical side cut. The domains are a wider, ABS side wall ,symmetrical, flat camber rockered park ski. The domains are definately a more substantial and innovative ski bbut the step up in quality and awesomeness is matched in price. For how affordable masterminds are they are a phenomenal ski, tons of fun but if you can afford the domains go with them as long as youre a more serious park skier

They are both not well equipped for all mountain riding. The masterminds will chatter and be super soft, while the domains are symmetrical and no camber but will do decently in slush or a lil pow i suppose. if you want all mtn park you cant beat a recoil and that is a guarantee. I like the blend but its not quite as park capable as the recoil.

i havent ridden either, but i did a lot of ski research recently and i would take the k2s over the lines in a heartbeat. but i would go for the recoils instead of the domains. just my 2 cents

Well you are going to have to get a man-sized ski at some point, sidewall is so much nicer than cap construction I think.

which means last 2 seasons..

I had masterminds, now domains. Just felt i needed a more park oriented ski. But really enjoyed my past two seasons on my masterminds!
