Armada AR7 vs. Line Chronic

Lookin to get some new skis this season. Both skis seem great for Park/All Mountain. I like the redesign of the Chronics with the early-rise, thin-tip, and half cap sidewalls. But the AR7s get so much praise. It's really just coming down to weight for me. I will probably go with the lighter ski. I know the Chrons are 1,785 grams. No idea what the AR7s weigh. Obviously my next step would be to go to a shop that sells both and compare myself but does anyone have any first hand knowledge?

AR7's are definitely lighter, but I would take my chronics over any Armada any day.

Thanks for the reply. Do you have the 2013 chrons?

Having the same debate myself as to which ski I'm buying for this winter. Probably going with Chronics as I'm 6'2 and I'm a little worried the 181 AR7s would feel short. Can't really go wrong either way.

ar7 if u want a stiff, poppy, lightweight ski. amazing performance.
chronic if u want a rockered jib ski that butters easily. lotta fun.
