OK so I've had several pairs of skis over the years, Salomon Guns, Salomon 1080s, Line Anthems, Line Invaders, Atomic Bentchetlers, like alot of these skis, learned what I like in a ski and what i don't like.
What i hated in some of my old skis was when i got up to high speeds (especially on east coast skating rinks we get quite a bit) they would seem to just have nothing to them, be really unstable etc. I hated the feel of the narrower skis in the park and around the mountain compared to wider skis.
So I have bentchetlers now for pow days so i don't need something for pow. I want a wider ski that has around a +/-90mm waist, camber, fairly decent sidecut, twin tip, and fairly stiff.
Im looking for people who have experience with any of the following skis that i've found.
Now im on a budget and ive found the following on sale
2012 Surface Double Times
2012 K2 Recoils
2012 Armada El Reys
The reason im asking is because almost every review ive found has one that contradicts it for example i made a thread here about elreys and they told me they were the best, fairly stiff etc, and ive read and seen reviews where they say they're bottom of the line and very unstable at higher speeds because theyre softer.
PS would it be uncommon for someone who's 6'1 185lbs to have 18din bindings on park/allmountain skis or would 16din be better for me?
