I'm in the market for some new planks and I can't decide on which ones. I've been looking at Kertel 98's and HG Stingers (Tall T collab) in particular. I am 15, about 5'8 65 kgs and i ride more or less 50/50 park all mountain. I'm looking for something fun and durable ski that can be fun lapping the park, but still charge through crud. I've heard good things about both of these skis, but not much about HG. Wondering if anyone has any more info about the HG's and which would be better suited to my needs.

Any other suggestions on skis and the size i should get would also be appreciated.

Thanks

173 KF rayzrblades. their torsional stiffness absolutely rocks the crud and is a blast all over the mountain. poppy. stable, all mtn ripper. yet symmetrical and super fun in the park.

same edges and base as on3p, 3/4 edge wrap, carbon fiber, mmmmm you cant go wrong with either the kartels or rayzrs. from what ive heard the stingers are pretty soft

There is a reason you have heard lots about the Kartels. They are fucking sick. Tried some of my friends last season and they are a dream. If you have the cash hop on those bad boys
