I am wondering what the best all mountain ski is. Specifically, I have experience with the Rossi scimitars and Salomon 2012's, however i would like to get input on other skis. Pros and cons of skis would be good, for all skis and the aforementioned 2012's and scimtars.

the 2012's seem to be more of a park ski in my eyes. i know its got rocker and shit but lots of park skis have rocker and they are not exactly wide...

i have line Blends at my all mountain shredder (50% pow, 25% groomer and 25% park) and they are awesome! deffently worth looking into!

prophets are no fun for an all mountain ski in my opinion. all mountain skis are heading in the direction of twin tips. ask any skis shop and they will agree that twin tips are taking over.

i have skied them and they are not bad skis... just not my kinda ski.

I have Blends as well, awesome all over ski. It can be taken out any day of the season and still rip it up.

meh theyre all right but kinda suck in the park but they can be a joy with a 8-12 inch day because the flex on them really soft and fun.

OP if i were you check out the K2 fujas or recoil/revival. the recoils are a ton similar to the 2012s if that is what you fancy. also check out the surface double times and blends
all great choices cant go wrong

Seriously have had so much fun on the J-mo. It is my all mountain destroyer when there is no fresh to be found. Comfortable mach'ing groomers, hitting the park, or just ripping around the hill. I'm always happy to pull the J-mo.
