Anyone have opinions on the two? West Coast mostly, 50/50 steeps to park. 5'10, 160. Thanks for the feedback in advance guys!

I skied the Access and the Ritual. The Ritual is much softer. I assume the Blog is about equally stiff to the Access since they are in the same series. If you want something soft and playful and a bit more on piste oriented and better in bumps, get the Ritual. If you want something more aggressive and a bit more off piste and pow oriented, get the Blog.

reverse that. the ritual is the more aggressive of the two. for 50/50 and all around playing id recommend the blog.

I haven't skied the blog but the ritual really surprised me. I skied it on hardpack, ice, and bumps and it handled all of the really well. I had switched from an old pair of 68 underfoot k2 apache recons and I didn't feel as though I had lost any performance

The Ritual is a wood core, metal laminate all mountain ripper that is not going to work well in the park. The Blog is a wood core jibby pow ski with a softer flex, which probably sounds more of what you are looking for given the limited info you provided.
