Hard to find a good review on these

Heard durability isn't an issue with these

Which one is more would the most playful and adept in the pow and park?

I have not skied either, but I have looked into getting both of them. I would almost go with the early rise because it has a tighter turn radius due to the taper. But I have also heard from people that the RDS is a similar ski the the Line Elizabeth, which was super soft and extremely playful. Can't really go wrong with either seeing as the prices are so low.

The older Rorys were stiff. I know they have an early rise now tho so Idk. I would love to get a set and try em out tho. Mine are bombproof.

The ER is the same as the Elan Boomerang.  I had a pair of 190s, and while they were a great powder ski  and good on groomers, at 120mm underfoot, I wouldn't call them a park ski. 

Great value though.  I still might pick up another pair.
