as someone who has ridden all 3 I would recommend NFX. Especially if you're worried about durability. only down side to NFX is its a pretty burly ski. otherwise that new Salomon construction is $$$$. Thats the ski the international team riders have been riding for years and it's now just making it to retail because up untill now it would have been about $700 at retail.

I like the Infamous.
My first ski and I've beat the crap out of em trying to progress on rails. Not to mention they look sick too

Theyre 3 pretty different skis. You need to give more info on your size, what you want to use them for etc

Never ridden the Wall but I've heard they're pretty stiff - a jump ski.
I have the Infamous right now. They're on the softer side, and pretty lightweight. My issue is that they're not the best built. Within my first few days on them they began to de-laminate: topsheet, edge, base; up to the first of three rivets. Add half a season and change, just broke through that rivet completely. So that's my experience. Great ski nonetheless.
