Okay im looking for a fast stiff twin, or semi twin that can hold a solid edge on iced up groomers but still pop well off of jumps and in the pipe, i found the armada triumph and it seemed perfect for this but they dont make it anymore, if i could find a lightly used pair that'd be awesome, but that seems unlikely, so any alternatives?

could get the Armada AR84/86? fast on edge i have to say maybe some Line ski as well? not very stiff tho. not really my kind of skis as i like them wide and soft for all the slush. but keep looking
