Volkl Bash 86 or Volkl Revolt 95

Going to use solely as a park ski. 86 seems too thin, 95 seems a bit wider than preferable. Thoughts?

Revolt 95 for sure and before anybody shits on him for wanting volkls, volkl actually makes great quality park skis and most of you are too stubborn to admit it just because their pro team is less stylish

Ive got revolt 87s and they have been bulletproof for me thus far. But i think you should go with the 95 op. Perfect width in my opinion. The revolt 87s i have use the same competition sintered base that volkl puts on their racing skis, and they glide so smooth and fast its incredible. The revolt 95s also use a very good sintered base afaik but its probably a bit modified to be more durable.

i think if you want a ski that is completely for park i would get a ski with a width in the 80s, but the revolt 95 will be fine for park and i think oyster bratwurst rides the 95 just fine or at least he did a yr ago in park competitions

I had some volkls i put through 2 years of hell. A ton of crashes, big disasters, and general abuse with no durability issues until the top sheet started to peel. Im honestly luck they made it that far.

I liked the revolt 95 as an actual ski more than a park ski. My vote is bash 86. Same profile and sidecut but cap tip and tail and thinner underfoot.

sidenote: a 90 will be coming out next year or year after. My guess is next year as a lot of the team is using it now.
