hi, like the title says, i'm in need of a second pair of skis to use only when i plan to spend 4-5 hours in the park or jumpin a kicker in the backcountry. I currently own a pair of PE for all mountain and park skiing mounted for all mountain skiing. I'm not sure if its better for me to get a wider ski which would either be the mojo or the karma or a thinner ski, Ar5's or Trouble makers. oh yeah, i'm 6' and a bit less than 200 lbs>
thanx

but the karma is going to be really stiff which may end up kicking your butt. if your not a great skier.

You would be insane not to get some Fujatives...excellent jib ski and you will be comfy on them if you ride PE's also. Plus the price is right.

^ for 6' almost 200 lbs, fujatives will be to soft. Karmas are better.

a thin ski is anything under 90 under foot and a wide ski is anything above 90 so base your decision off of that and if you want bc then at least a 180 especially since your 6'
