she is like 5'6, somewhere around 110-130lbs and an intermediate looking to get better. i was thinking line masterminds, but they don't have to be park friendly skis so i'm looking for other suggestions. cheap is preferable and of course, +karma for responses.

What does she want to do on them? Is it just park or does she also ride the whole mountain? Also 110-130 is a pretty big range, find out how much she actually weighs. Also knowing her age and how long she has skied really helps work out how strong she is and what kind of level she is at. This lets us better work out what flex may work well for her

Yeah have fun asking her exact weight. I would just stick with that ballpark, it shouldn't make a huge difference in finding a pair of skis

Haha yeah I was thinking that but 20 lbs is potentially like a 5th of her weight so it makes a pretty big difference. I would think to save her self potentially wasting a lot of money on an unsuitable ski she will be happy to answer.
