Just wondering what you guys think is the best, possibly wanting one of these pairs for next season
Details
5'10 145lbs
Ski PNW, stevens pass to be specific
Want a park ski that I can use on rails and medium jumps
Intermediate ability level
All these skis are similar price range so that isn't a factor I guess
Any other skis you guys would recommend for me? Thanks

Also; what length should I be looking at? I would use these skis almost 100% park,

you'd probably be around a 177 length

Ok, cuz right now I'm on 179 k2 Kung Fujas, I just want something more park oriented, so I was thinking shorter, but k2's run long. I think I'm leaning more towards the T halls right now, probably 177, still looking for more opinions though!

I had Ar6's for my first season after quitting racing and loved them. They still 4 years later serve as rock skis, damn bomb proof. I can't speak for Line's durability considering I've always steered away from them, never heard ecstatic reviews though
Ar6 is essentially the same as current Ar7 and the Thall is a softer version of that. The Ar7 would be a best option for all mountain since it has a little more stiffness, and the Thall will be more fun in the park. Keep in mind the ONLY difference between the Ar7 and Thall is stiffness/flex pattern (and its really not that much).
Also I'm 5'10 155. go with the 176's for sure

I would go for the t-hall, personally i'm skiing with next years b-dog ski, and it's fantastic! But I've used ar7, pc and t-hall and of those t-hall is most defiantly the most playful ski that at the same time can handle some hard landings. I have experienced that they easily chip in the nose tho! In that case it seems like ar7 and PC is more durable. A friend of mine had future spin for two days, then they broke. So i would´t recommend that.
