Replying to All mountain ski help
Whaddup ns- need advice on a solid all mountain ski. I go through skis and beat them up rather quickly. I have a pair of SFBs for deep snow (thank you recycled sports Frisco- $150 for the whole setup barely used - great spot) and a pair of bentchetler 100s for touring (thanks guys at Christys silverthorne). I don’t love the shape of the Bents, my buddy thinks that should be my one ski quiver for park/all mountain but I just can’t get over the weird feeling-hump of them.
I purchased a pair of 181 J Mallards (vacations) in hopes of winning their $50k give back pot a few weeks back and didn’t get lucky so I’m looking to sell/return those just because they’re so damn pricey and a few shop friends say they don’t hold up at all (is this true??) I’m currently on some old public enemy’s (10yo) and they’re now falling apart so I’m desperate to what I should get. Need a pair that can get around in the park and charge down east wall and snap through the trees. I like a durable but playful/buttery ski. I can get a deal on Armadas but I’ve been told not to due to them being too noodley, same with Lines. I’ve been on both before and liked them but that was back when I was more into park. Any help would be much appreciated!
Here’s some ski carnage from the past few seasons for attention
