Really not sure why you are limiting yourself to Line Skis

We need to know stuff like what you ski, where you ski, what your ability is, do you want a stiff or soft ski, wide or skinny, etc. before you ask for ski advice.

I mean if he wants to limit his options to one brand that's on him. As far as what to get you can't go wrong with chronics

All of those skis are really different dude, check out the sticky and identify what kind of skiing you want to do.

You should be removed from NS because none of your posts are ever funny, helpful or interesting.

OP: What is your height, weight and ability? What do you like in a ski? Do you like rocker or camber? Do you like stiff or soft skis? Where are you going to be skiing? Purely park (what ratio of rails to jumps) or do you want to ski all mountain as well?

Don't limit yourself to just Line because they're "cool" to you or your friends. There are plenty of other companies that make much higher quality skis. Shop around before you decide to stick to one "mainstream" brand.

Well something with rocker-camber-rocker (you get the best of both worlds this way) that's not too soft or stiff you could look at Armada B-Dog, Atomic Infamous or Punx, Amplid Provokes and K2 Shredditor 92. There is a lot of options out there and your best bet is to try demo some skis and get an idea of what you like/dislike.

Maybe op just wants Line? They make good skis, I've ridden almost all of their park skis. I have the first year TC's and they are a lot of fun. Don't take them off of big jumps because you won't get the stability if you don't land perfect. However, if you just like messing around and trying to butter on stupid things then the TC's are made for it.

I know a lot of people don't like how soft Line makes their skis, but I love the softness. If you want something a little bit stiffer just get the Chronics. Still just as much fun, but you can do more with them.

P.S. I've had the 07-08 Chronics since they came out new and all edges and bases are good. So for anyone who says Line skis "break in 2 seconds" must ride strictly concrete. Except for Afterbangs, the all wood just can't handle the snow.
