Im looking for a cheap park/all mountain ski because i snapped my other ski and i've narrowed it down to these too. these would be my everyday ski so i'll be doing everything to park to 6 inches of fresh.
I'm 5'10 130
I also don't want to spend over 200

Watch life's are for sure going to be stiffer than the joysticks, but they will probably be better all mountain skis. theclymb has green lifes (same ski) on sale for $200 right now.

i have joysticks, they ride pretty well outside of the park. there are super fun jibbing around in the pow on. tons of pop in them too.
