I have older line afterbangs right now and am looking to buy a new set of skis for next season, should I satya with Line or go with some Armada skis? I mostly ski park but love to ride groomies once and awhile.

ARMADA! I you like some groomers too, get AR7s or El Reys. I have AR7s, and they are the tits, man.

Depends if you want a really playful ski. If you want a ski that can ski groomers *decently* and is super buttery/playful then I would consider TC's. If you want something more "standard park" with medium flex and whatever, then go armada.

if you want a stiffer, faster, performance park ski get an armada.
if you want a softer, more playful, jib sort of ski get a line.

they both make good quality skis. it just depends on what kind of skiing you like to do. also, when you make threads like this, adding your height/ weight could be helpful.

It depends. Do you want a ski that is made from cardboard and snot or do you want to pay a little bit more and get a ski that's built like a tank?

Actually, I would say K2 makes the most tankish ski. Heavy, yes, but they just refuse to die.

They are like the nokia phone of skis.

Neither, buy skis that aren't built like shit in china or from a brand that sues others over patents and lie about tech they stole from smaller companies
