Alriight, Im looking for some new skis this season, looking for a more park specific / playful ski than my 09 Armada El Reys.

I am around 6ft and 175 pounds. Ski mostly rails when in the park (which is just about the only thing to do in the midwest)

I don't really care too much about all mtn stability, just looking for any possible input that will help in my final decision. Thanks.

i just bought a pair of 179 cm k2 iron maiden edition revivals from o2gearshop for 320$.

I demoed a pair of domains last year and heard they ski similarly. I thought the ski was very playful and jibby. it is somewhat heavy but buttery

I would recommend the ski AND the price I got it at. sells for 400$+ everywhere else

revivals are more of a jump ski, get domains. i have surface no times and they are the best rail ski i have ridden, but i have head about alot of people snapping theres but i dont have that problem cause i weigh like nothing. lol

I'm 6'2" 156lbs and i ride laroses. they are seriously my favorite ski. I use them for rails and small to medium jumps. I've had mine for 2 years and mine are still holding up. I constantly beat mine on rails and boxes and I'm yet to have an edge crack. they are super light, poppy, and playful.
