I have skied the AR7s for 4 days and they are amazing. So much pop compared to Salomon Suspects, which I had before.
Moreover it is a really stable ski for high speed! I don't know about the chronics though ... If you have any questions about the AR7, just ask.

I rode chronics for a few days back in February and I really enjoyed them the flex was snappy and really enjoyable. I felt like they had a lot of pop and the were great on rails. Can't comment on durability as I didn't personally own them but they seemed to be holding up well.

Can't really go wrong here. I ride chronics and like them a lot, probably gonna buy another set or demo the rockered ones and get them. But I've ridden ar6s, which I imagine are similar to ar7s, and they were sick too. Seemed slightly softer in the noses than chronics. Both are good, really.

I ride Chronics, and for me they are harder to land jumps after i switched from my 4frnts but they are a lot shorter so that could be a factor also. but the chronics are really good ski. i dont know about the other one though

Chronics all the way. In my experience with Line, the fatty edges are the best feature for a park skier. I smahed up my Anthems almost daily for two seasons on rails and Michigan Ice, and there isn't a single crack. The 2013s will have the same cap/sidewall tech (capwall) and are apparently a lot lighter. So, Chronics!
