What skis?

Postby SkierPete » Tue Mar 29, 2011 7:44 pm

I'm a 40+ yo Dad of 3 boys and want to learn how to ski the park better. I use Line Chronics as my everyday ski but have almost 200 days on them. I want to replace them with park friendly sticks that can also handle the groomers. Thinking of the Armada Alpha 1s or the Rossi S5s. I have Bent Chetlers and Line Prophet 100s for other days so they don't need to handle deep pow.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

I have a pair of alpha 1's and they are very buttery and fun in the park but are not very good on steep terrain. They like to smear turns not curve. If you want a rockered park ski I suggest Moment rockers. I got a pair this season and they are a much more fun ski to me. My favorite park skis I have ever used are armada pipe cleaners.
