Out of the skis you named, i like the halos. I would suggest checking out atomic punx though as they are very light and poppy

fitly rich is a symmetrical ski, so if you want to ski in the trees to i would chose the halo

the filthy rich is symmetrical and the halo isn't.
if you're skiing 90% park i'd honestly just go for the filthy rich. just cuz its symmetrical doesn't mean you can't bring it anywhere else...

So right now im thinking halo filthy rich or k2 domains, my only concern with the domain is that it has no camber and im worried it will have no carving ability whatsoever and I have no idea how the flex compairs to the other skis.
Ps is the filthy rich flex colser to the halo or alpha 1?

i have the domains and they are an awesome ski, i found that they carve really well. Are you gonna be using them outside the parks lots? what were you worried bout the carving ability?

well the filthy rich has very little camber, only a couple mm. (someone here knows the exact number i'm sure) and since they have rocker as well, they might ski similarly. i don't know for sure though, i just bought FRs myself and i've never skied domains

They don't need to carve well I just worrie that with no camber at all it will be impossible to have fun anywhere but the park, my only other pair of skis are ar7s by the way
