Looking for something supersoft to learn butters and generally freestyle.I I'm 183cm, 78kg
Used to have a pair of bacons, loved em.So I thought these two are good options for a advanced backcountry skier but jerry in the park. Need to learn those butters and future spins!
^ I ski Blends and can confirm, they are solid for butters and do whatever you need in the park with ease +they're lots of fun out of the park on natural jibs. If it's between the two however, I think the Honey Badgers are cooler and will last you longer. Don't know which is a better park ski for learning tricks and pretty sure it won't matter too much anyway, for either will be solid to learn on.
The tigersnake is specifically designed for intermediate skiers to help them progress quickly in park, whereas honey badger is designed to be a durable lightweight jib ski for people already riding park. Long term option and especially since you're used to riding skis like the Bacon I'd say go Honey badger.
That being said, as others have mentioned it sounds like you'd really enjoy the Blends. I ride those myself and they're rad
