aldentes are a slightly wider park ski. from what i have heard from multiple people, they arent good out of the park. for an actual 1 ski quiver, look to
on3p jeronimo
k2 kung fujas (or the shredditor that is replacing it)
line blend
armada arv
k2 recoil (more a park ski but can handle all mountain)

I agree with this except for kung fujas if op is looking for a more park oriented ski. I would personally go with the arv.

If you more for park perfrormance than all mountain performance, I'd look at something ~100 underfoot. Theres a ton of choice on the market right now

Skis around 100 Underfoot

Rossignol Scimitar Open

Rossignol Scimitar

Line Blend

ON3P Jeronimo

Moment PB&J

K2 Kung Fujas

K2 Shredittor 102 (come out for the 2013/2014 season and replaces the Kung Fujas)

Volkl Bridge

Dynastar 6th Sense Silencer

Line Chronic

Surface One Time

RMU Diam

Just a warning about the shredditor 102 is apparently is really damn soft. More than the kung fujas. Ive talked to a couple guys that work in a shop and theyve ridden it and they say its too soft

185 Worth Magic double carbons w/ the response core. Best all around everything everyday ski I've ever been on and changed my whole perspective on having big quivers.



There's so much good technology out there right now though. Individual style and desires will dictate different strokes for different folks, and it's awesome to see so many great options as well as indies growing and giving people more and more options for customization IMO.

It's a great time to be a skier.

After this past season, I am a strong believer in the Kung Fujas. I took those skis everywhere and they held up perfectly. Can't wait to get back on em...
