sounds like halos would be better unless the jumps you hit are big or you prefer a stiffer ski.

i dont mean to steal your thread but would the alphaX be good for all mountain since they are wider underfoot next year

i got the chance to do a few runs on both of them and in all honesty if your mostly a jibber i wouldnt particularly recommend either of these. the wider platform made them feel much more sluggish compared to current and past years, i feel they are more of armadas all mountain and jump ski now. im sure they would still be fun on rails (wasnt aloud to hit any) but i'd look more into the arv7 or whatever it is for next year. for referance the alpha x is softer than this years alpha, soft enough to have fun on rails for sure.
