Looking for new skis

Finally time to upgrade to a new ski as I've grew out my old one and pretty much destroyed it. I rode the k2 domain for 2-3 seasons. Pretty solid ski but started to crack edges and slowly delaminating. Anyone have any recommendations for my next pair. Looking for something soft and buttery but could still hold its own off larger kickers. I mostly ski rails but I think ill be expanding on my park skiing by throwing down on some larger kickers. I ski like 65% park 35% all mountain. Dont really have a price point. Someone help me out. I was looking at the ARV 96(seems like a solid ski). What other skis should I be looking at?

What sort of waist width are you looking at? If you want fat skis like the AR 96 then possibly also look at the Line Blends. They are super soft but still really nice on jumps. B-Dog or Edollo too? Nordica Soul Rider. Icelantic Da’nollie. J whipits or Allplays depending on what waist width you want.

Honestly not to sure what width I want. But I do prefer a wider ski versus a narrow one. So around that 96 width should be fine for me. Thanks for the suggestions. If anyone else wants to chime in you're more then welcome!
