Hi, me friend skis in the NORTHEAST mainly in VERMONT. He is a TYPE 3 SKIER and skis 50% ALL MTN and 50% PARK. He is looking for a skis that does well in CRUD, POWDER, and HARD PACK. He is a PREETY AGRESSIVE SKIER and is 6" FT, 15, and 175 lbs. The skis he was considering were the Line Chronics, Armada AR7s, Nordica Ace of Spades, Dynastar 6th Sense Distorter, K2 Domains, K2 Recoils, Rossi Scratch, Rossi Scimitar, Line Blends, and the 4Frnt Turbos. ik its a long list of considerations but he would just like help narrowing it down. any other reccomendiations would be much appreciated. Happy New Year!

Recoils are beasts if you wanna do park and pow that 90mm waist is where it's at! Not the best flotation but still best ski I've ever owned! Got mine for $300!

no one seems to want to reply so I'm narrowing it down to the line chronics, ar7s, ace of spades, and Rossi scratches. I don't like the recoils or iron maidens also so please help a bro out and comment.

If you want something that is a kick ass park ski and can handle the very occasional pow day look at the chronic, if you want something that is a kick ass park ski and skis groomed super well, get the ar7.
