Burgythey are park skis. if you were a big guy they might not support your weight and wouldn't be as durable. since I know your a smaller dude from all your other threads you made, they should be fine for you and should hold up. I think you will find them nice.
Dkim_10So they would be better than the blanks

Burgyfor you id say yes, because they will be easier to flex.
your set up right now are line supper heros right? why do u want a new ski, are they too small now, are they to soft? also what kind of tricks and what size jumps/rails are you hitting?
if your only hitting medium to small features and just doing 270 out then most entry level park skis will work for you (armada coda, k2 press, line future spin shorty).
if your are 270ing on to the rail and doing swaps and other tricks more difficult tricks then you might wana look at something else (armada ar7 161cm, k2 sight 159cm)
A ski that is directed to your ability, will be more fun and you will progress faster.

kalle.i really liked infamous, light weight, poppy and symmetric. never skied them in the park tho, just a few laps of groomers and it was fun. a friend of mine broke his pair in a few weeks of park riding, so if you're a big guy, i'd steer away from the infamous. if you're small, go for it, they're pretty cheap also!
Dkim_10Im about 5'4 to 5'5 and 120lbs do you think they would treat me well because i have line superhero skis and they were jr skis and i broke them in 4 sessions
Swandog7Line super héros are way too small for you now, and jr. skis aren't built to take abuse like "adult" skis. You should be fine, I wouldn't compare these to blanks though because they are like opposite skis. Make sure to detune your skis underfoot, they will last much longer.
Dkim_10And so if i try to butter and flex these alot would they break on me im 120lbs and 5'4 to 5'5

THEDIRTYBUBBLETheyd be a great ski for you. You're on the smaller side, so you could butter and flex with no fear.
Swandog7No, you should be able to flex these with no fear, you are a pretty light skier. Go for something in the 160-170 range. The longer the ski, the more sturdy it will be on jumps and washing out.
Dkim_10Im hitting bigger jumps like 50s and sometimes 60s but I usually try to push my limit on jumps and try something new every time. I like to flip on jumps and 360s 540s and maybe 720s. Yea I am doing 270s on rails and wana pus my self to do a 270 on and 450 out. I wana get new skis because my jr superhero skis they are badly broken. They edge and ski is separated and is really bad. I liked how flexy they were but if I flexed them they would break so I wanted a ski that I could flex and not break for a fun buttery playful ski in the park. So I would be doing more difficult to advanced tricks i would say.

BurgyYeah you should have specified this, you obviously need a more advanced ski then just an entry level ski or price point ski. What is your budget on a set of skis? what's the max price that you are willing to pay? and are you buying them online? cause there are lots of good skis that you can get for under $300
Dkim_10My max is looking around 400 dollers and yes I'm buying skis online
