ok, I'm like 5 feet 1 and need a new park ski. I weigh 90 pounds, I'm 13, i want a symmetrical, buttery ski that can rip anywhere. i currently ride a 147cm line future spin, i ski mostly park/ The dimensions of these skis are: K2 Domains-159, Volkl Steps-155, Atomic Infamous-151/161, or Line Afterbangs-155. any other suggestions would be sweet.

Domains are probably what you're after.

I had afterbangs, and they were fun but the durability is shit and they're a bit too soft. I got domains afterwards and holy shit they're so much nice. They seem bombproof, and are super poppy. I haven't rode the infamous but I've heard that the durability isn't quite as good as the domain.

I've heard bad things about the Infamous and the Afterbang. I've heard a lot of good things about volkl and k2 in all, so I would rule out the other 2 if I were you

if you get after bangs get the 2014 or 2015 model. Any ones before that are not durable at all and they are not great skis, but the new ones are pretty sick. If you want something buttery, i would also recommend the line traveling circus. They arent very stable off of really big jumps, but they are sick for rails and boxes and stuff like that.

Regardless of what you buy you're gonna have a warranty issue if you're a hot ryder my dude.
I only replied to this thread because you basically listed off the 4 worst mass productions in concern to shit I see blown up on the regs.
If you want something thats gonna last you a while spend a little more $$$. Its worth it.
Look to recoil, Not the wall, punx and chronic.
Hope thats helpful.
