The right ski for me.

Hey guys, I've been looking around for new skis next season and just can't decide on anything so I've come here for help. Background info: 16 year old skier, spend 95% of my day bashing the hell out of my skis on rails, also I'm from the east coast and weigh only 125ish pounds. So basically I'm looking for a solid park ski that can hold up to the amount of riding I do. Thanks, +K for all serious answers.

get atomic punx. They are light, poppy, stable, and they are going to have thicker edges to hold on rails well this season. Plus they are super durable

Oh, and I don't exactly have a high budget so they need to be on the cheaper side. Thanks!

I was looking at those, seemed like a really solid ski. Too bad everywhere I look online they're sold out.

I rode volkl ledges for a season in 2010. They were pretty inexpensive and were super soft. Like only good for rails soft.

If you're just hitting rails, i'd look into them. I don't think its changed too much since 2010.
