Whattup Newschoolers?
After trashing the bases on my AR7s hitting urban and riding over concrete (would not recommend), I'm in search of a new pair of park skis. I've limited my choices down to a few, but am open to suggestions. However, first I'll give you a rundown of me:
Bio:
6'1"
180lbs
Very aggressive skier
I'm much better on rails than jumps
Prefer a stiffer ski because I'm a bigger guy
70% rails 30% jumps
What I'm looking for: Stiffer ski that I can still butter around with (Similar to AR7s). Must have a fast base, cambered, and DURABLE EDGES. If you're not from the midwest you probably wouldn't understand how many rails we hit, every night of the week haha.
What I'm debating between:
Liberty LTE: Had a pair of them like 4 years ago when I was more of a noob so I don't remember/don't know how well they performed.
Armada AR7: My current skis, I have very little complaints. Bomber durability and a pretty nice ski; however, I like to get different pairs of skis, but if they're my best choice I'm willing to buy them again.
ON3P Prester: Had some Filthy Riches, loved how they performed but had durability issues with two pairs so that's my concern with these along with possibly being to stiff. I know there is kind of a bias towards them on here.
Volkl Wall: Have rode them before, like them just concerned a little with durability.
Rossignol Scratch: LOVE the way they ride, their weight, and pop. But, I'm very concerned with their edge durability...:/
Faction Candide 1.0: Seem like a dope ski, just don't know if $650 is worth it for a park ski...maybe the Kennedy or Silas?
So your task is to do one of the following: pick a ski from that list, add to that last, cross off from that list, whatever you want I just need to narrow it down.
I really appreciate you reading this super long ski thread, I'm kind of picky when it comes to stuff like this. 10/10 K as always for help, thanks!
