Looking at buying an all mountain ski thats fun to mess around with and can handle the pow, want it to last a few seasons as well. Not gonna hit rails, only jumps occasionally. want your guys advice. i think i can get marksmans for the best price but they do have a lot of rocker for the days when theres no fresh snow.
thanks boys and girls.

Marksman are a great everyday ski. There are stiff enough underfoot to still carve hard so for days with no new snow they still rip. They can handle the fresh pretty well for a narrower ski too. Certainly more an all mtn ski then the arv which are pretty soft.

Have the 106 and it's a blast. Wish it was a little stiffer, but I can still ski it in everything from low tide to 5-6 inches of fresh and it performs well in everything (relatively speaking). Can't comment on the other skis, but if you're looking for a playful ski and like to mess around on the whole mountain go with the arv. It's not going to charge down variable terrain, but if you ski it with a centered, balanced stance it will reward you.
