What up NS. I'm in the market for some new skis, but I'm having trouble narrowing it down. That's where I need your help! I just starting really doing park last year. I'm fairly comfortably on your standard rails and boxes so this year I will be looking to improve that rail game. So I was wondering what ski would be the best for me, a somewhat beginner park skier that is looking to really start improving his park abilities. I kind of would like something rather light and durable on top of that. Thanks NS!

heard they are heavy also. If you want a light and playfull ski to learn on I may reconsider the OMW

Personally I would go thall. They are pretty soft so they will be easy for you to learn on but they are full camber unlike the bdog so tey will be more stable an may help you progress faster as you won't be washing out so much.

I would say the OMW. Most of the younger and beginner people at my mountain are all on that. They seem like a good ski to learn on and hold up great as you progress.
