Looking for a park rocker ski that can last me through at least about 2 seasons. 85-90 underfoot and fairly light and inexpensive. I've been looking at the K2 Sights, Atomic Infamous, and Line TC skis. If it helps I ride on the East Coast and about 70% rails 30% jumps. Thanks!

out of the three i would go with the infamous.

aside from the line TC none of these are actually full rockered, just early rise.

infamous are fun as fuck though and in my experience pretty goddamn bomber

The infamous is not very durable, but is light and inexpensive.
The TC is fully cambered, heavy, and so soft that jumps are a big problem.
The sights are stiff and directional, so they would be better for all mountain.

Do you want a stiff or soft ski, and directional or symmetrical?

i have no idea why but when i read line TC i thought SFB for some reason. my bad. but @MartianMan is right all of these are very different skis and really aren't all that similar. i think it would be good for you to do a little more research and fine a style of ski that fits your needs and narrow it down from there.
