Next time use search bar. Its in the right hand corner of the screen here on NS. Very useful tool instead of being annoying. Also there are lots of threads on these skis.
With that being said both atomic and armada are very good dependable
skis. You probably comes down to is what kinda of ski you like more?
The halo is a rockerd park ski. Softer and made to butter the snow. you can
hit rest of the mountain but its made for buttern and spinning in the park. More
geared towards a skier who like more play in their ski.
The punx is a symmetrical full camber ski. Made for everything in the
park. Probably like 50%rails and 50%jumps. It's gonna be a stiffer than
the halo. It will probably do better carving then halo because of full
camber. The punx is also atomics pro park ski.Like I said it;s a 50-50 ski.does everything great.
At your size 182cm in halo (it's got good amount of rocker so you want it big) and 173 on the punx.
You can go bigger if you like a bigger ski on the punx. I would not go smaller than 176 on the halo.
halos are better for rails because of the park rocker but the punx would be a lot more poppy, I would go with the punx... if you can get your hands on some
