Aight guys so I'm kinda stuck on a decision here. It's that time again to buy some fresh new skis and I need your help NS. I can't decide between the domains or Revivals. From what I've read both are insanely dope skis, but I haven't been able to officially compare the two. Pleeeease help me out yo.

Keep in mind:
I used to ride 161 Line Invaders and want something a little faster
I'm 5' 10"
165 lbs
Live in WI so i mostly ride cruddy crud
and i spend 80% in the park; 20% ungroomed (I take frequent trips out to CO)

Don't fail me now NS.
Mucho +k

*If you have any better suggestions feel free to throw them out there.

well this is just my opinion but I rode K2 sights last year and if you like your skis a little stiffer definitely get it. I haven't ridden either of the skis your wondering about.

Same weight and height as you and I have the 179 Revivals.

I love em, I suck tho. Doesn't stop me loving em.

No real advice, sorry.

I have the domains and I love them, but since your going to be doing ungroomed I would go with the revivals they will handle much better outside of the park

i got recoils this year and they are sick. they turn better than revivals because of them camber over them being flat. Any way they are sick skis and highly recommend them. I'm also 5'10 and the 174s

i ride 2011 domains. they are awesome in the park lazy swaps are so easy with them and they have great pop off jumps. i ride them through the crud and its not a big deal but they are defs harder to ride in the pow like all symetrical skis, but you eventually learn to compensate for it. revivals are a good hybrid park and freeride ski.
