Armada thalls vs k2 sight

Im looking for a thin-ish to ski all mountain in shit conditions with, that is also more than capable of shredding the shit out of the park. The sights and t halls are pretty close in dimensions, and both are pretty stiff. Would be going forward 75% of the time. Planning on getting them mounted close to true center. Which one would be better for what I want out of them? Any other suggestions?

The thall is a soft ski, not sure where you got that they were stiff. They are mid underfoot but soft in the tips and tails. Because of this they don't carve that well. I would look at the ar7 instead or maybe even te arv ti but that may be too wide.

i have a pair of k2 sights and they are pretty great, they can hold an edge really great for turns of all shapes and sizes.And if you decide to take them into the park they have a relatively low swing weight and are great on rails. I can't really talk on behalf of the t halls, but i would imagine they aren't as good all mountain because they're pretty flexy I've heard that they're okay though. Both are great skis t halls are probably more angled toward park. Hope this helps.

Not sure about the sights, but I have heard good things about thalls. I heard they are super sick on rails

I once landed back seat on a backie with k2s, and they snapped into two pieces, so i had to ride down the rest of the mountain with 1 and 1/2 ski, and my friend snapped his k2s trying to butter..
We both ride Armada now.
