I'm currently wondering which ski to get out of these 2 (both 2019) Im about 5'4 100 lbs and would probably be skiing 50% trees and 50% park. I was thinking about getting the arv in 163 or the revolt in 157 or 165. Thanks in advance for any advice. Ment to put this in gear talk but put it in ski gabber.. My bad there

Haven't tried them but my guess is that the arvs would most likely be better for what you are looking to do with them. Corrext me if im wrong but the revolts aren't really meant for anything outside of the park but the Arvs from what I've heard are a pretty good ski for both park and all mountain.

Only really rode my friend’s 96’s in the park, but they seemed to hold up I really liked their flex. From what he says he went for a pair of kartels for all mountain, but he’s a super aggressive skier.

Honestly when it comes to skis that are super close in range. Just search up the flex of the skis and decide if you want a stiffer or a flexier ski then decide.

I used to ride the revolts, they were decent, but they weren’t great quality, and sometimes I found that they didn’t carve as much as I like a ski to. I have skied the ARV 106 and they were a lot better, they are obviously different than the 96, but they were super stable, good turning IMO. I would lean towards the ARV.
