Hey NS... Help me decide which skis i'll be riding next year? I'm 6'4'' 170 pounds... really want a playful and light park ski that can handle itself on the rest of the mountain. I have pow skis, so i don't need to worry about taking my park skis into the deep snow. I'm really into surface swaps and butters so the idea of a rockered park ski excited me... any opinions? I'm open to any other ski suggestions as well.... possibly K2 Domains, Atomic Punx, etc.. +K for all useful responses. Thanks

You have to watch out for quality when buying Surface. I have a friend who bought a pair of surface skis and the bases dry out like sandpaper and he has more split edges than days on those skis.
the jibs are a pipe ski are they not? I might be mistake about that.
And arent the antigens an all mountain ski? If you have your powder skis then why not go for a full on park ski?
I have 60+ days on my atomic punx and theyre in pretty good shape still, Id recommend them.

I have atomic punx. They are very playful and super light. My favorite ski, and i would definitely recommend them. They will be stiffer next year though, and they are thin for all mountain at 82mm underfoot. I was still able to rip some powder with them though and you have pow ski so you would be fine.

I dont ride the anitgen but I know that it is a park ski that can handle most terrain, liberty makes good quality products so I would go with them

I second the punx. Rode them all season and not one problem. As he said next year they are a bit less soft. I'd also recommend the atomic infamous (although I've never rode them my self) they're soft, have 10% tip and tail rocker, symmetrical, they're 86 underfoot so you get a tad more width than the punx for all mountain, and they're only like $350 or something like that.
