I've been researching park skis and i can't really narrow it down so some help would be appreciated.. I'm 5'10 140 and ski like 90% park, about 70 rails, 30 jumps. Ive been looking at atomic punx, line afterbangs, and the new line TC ski that is coming out next year.. any help would be appreciated, THANKS!

screw the afterbangs and get urself some of last years chronics. way better ski for the same price if u get an out of season untracked.com is a good spot to find older line gear. they still have anthems as well

The punx will be PERFECT. I have them and they're the shit in the park but aren't the best for all mountain. Super light, poppy, stable, amazing. And only 4 bills so you won't feel guilty for beating the shit out of them. Chronics are all mountain skis

I have Chronics now, there a really nice, poppy, stiff, and fun park ski... but after your first month or two you ride them they get really waterlogged. I live in the east so rain/really wet snow is a common event but still...
I'd say get 4frnt switchblades, Atomic Punx, Rossi Scratch, or Salomon Suspects

Definitely look at Armada AR7s or ON3P Filthy Riches, both extremely fun in the park but versatile at the same time.
