I have both the Armada Halo and the AR7. I would say at your height and weight, go with the AR7. There a lot stiffer then the Halos and are perfect to get started in the park with. Pretty buttery on rails and has plenty of pop. The AR7 have the traditional camber while the Halo has the Park Rocker. It's just up to you what you prefer. I haven't skied the Alpha 1 or the Domains so can't say much about them. Hope that helps a little.

just guessing here, but you probably don't want domains. i'm 6'1", 175lbs and i love them, but they're absurdly soft. somebody your size isn't gonna be getting much pop or stability out of that ski, honestly.
