Hey guys,

I was planning on buying a new pair of park planks.
ATM i was looking at these two skis, because I've been riding the TCs for over two years now and I absolutly love'em. Poor things are about to die... RIP
I'd use them also for some quick turns outside the groomers, like I did with the TCs.
I'd say it's like 70% for the TigerSnake and 30% Blend.
Pls let me hear some Pros n Cons.
Thanks a lot

Yeah I know they sell them for a nice, low price. But due to the fact that the TC team rides them quite often I was wondering if they're any good.

If you're looking for durability, don't get lines. I have literally nothing against the company, it's just that from what I've heard, their quality has gone downhill over the last couple years so spending, say, $400 on a pair that lasts a season or two isn't as good of a deal as spending $700 on skis that stand the test of time. If you're looking to invest in a nice pair of skis, get some ON3Ps or something.

Both fun in their own regards but really different skis so hard to compare. Yes the Blend will give you wayy more platform and all mtn versatility but the TIgersnake is more affordable with tip and tape taper & rise which makes them super light and playful. Thanks and good luck! -jm
