I just started skiing 2 years ago. I was skiing with my friends last year when they entered the terrain park at west (i know not very big but at that time for me it was). Now i am in the park all the time and even though not great, I'm trying to get better. I got k2 bad seeds at the beginning of last year and now ( already) I need new skis. Which should i get?

sorry all this stuff is kinda overwhelming. I'm in the NORTHEAST. I'm about INTERMEDIATE and want better skis for the PARK. I cant spend more than $600 probably with bindings. I want a ski thats GOOD ON RAILS but is also decent on 30-60 FOOT KICKERS.
