i really like my t-halls, they have amazing pop and have held up great. the ar50 side wall helps with swing weight, i found myself lacking the extra 90 degrees with other skis, but you can just whip them around. great sskis IMO

if you do greater then 50% jumps then halos. If you do more rails/ jibs or do more then 10% groomers then go with the thall

Fact is that halos got park rocker which is super fun and playful while doing butters and other fun creative stuff. I got armadas alpha 1's and they also got park rocker and it just feels good.
If your hill is small and covered by ice the rocker is quite pain when the slope is on ice. then i would choose thall.
But as overall ski i would pick thall for you. It performs more than well in park and i've heard only good about it.

Go for tanner hall!

Yeah! go for t-halls. Great skis! durable, super fun and playful. perfect on rails and really good on jumps. buttery and poppy. i used to have ar6 and loved them, but t-hall feels much better. really sick skis! sorry for my english ;) bless

i think 176 will be good, or if you want more stable skis get 181 i'm 5'8 and ride 171 - feel great.

I'd grab the 176 I have alphas 182 and I'm about 5'10 too. You'll get used to it if you buy the 182. But a couple times I've felt I would rather the slightly shorter

Id go with halos man. theyre unique with the park rocker and are very fun. both are sick skis the thall just seems like a standard park ski nothing special. but im sure theyre super fun. either way you cant go wrong
