Looking for some new park skis

I'm looking for some new park skis. I do have the Thalls from 2011 so i'm looking for something a bit stiffer.
Been looking at the ON3P FR and the Surface Blanks & One Time. Also looked a bit into Armadas new Alpha X, and i really like the rocker! (i know the blanks aren't rockered). But with this said i'm really open to suggestions on what other ski to look into, any thoughts on the durability is welcomed too! I'm really looking for a ski that i don't have to worry won't hold the entire season, which is why the FR is quite attractive.

So i'm around 173cm in height (around 5,7 feet) and i'm not really looking for anything to handle pow or all mountain - just the park.





and then i have full tilts so yea, i'm kinda big deal.

I have some blanks and they are awesome! just a warning if you have no experience with surface skis they don't have much flex, pretty stiff but they ski awesome and their cheap!

FRs for sure, surface skis do ski great but only buy them if you have the ability to get a second pair later in the season cause the durability is some dick
