this is gonna be pretty generic, but im lookin for a new ski since my invaders finally died. im lookin for a stiffer ski, i also would want it to be symmetrical, and not over-the-top expensive.

inb4 searchbar, i didnt feel like searching through a shitload of threads to find one similar

I'm assuming you want a park ski?

Height? Weight?

Check out the Atomic Punx, and Joystick These

Both Symmetrical, and both kill it in the park/jib scene

Don't know about the Switchblade, but for sure check out the Punx in 182 or the Filthy Rich in 181 or 186(next year). Both amazing park skis

Check out the Volkl Walls. I have last years Ledges, which i think are similar to the Walls but Walls are better skis. My ledges are solid on the whole mountain and I know both pairs have a symmetrical build.

you can't really go wrong with the AR7, I'd go with the largest size. What size Switchblades are there?
