I told myself I wasn't going to make one of these threads. But oh well, I don't want to waste money or anything so I'll get some opinions from the interwebs. Alright, I'm about 6 foot 150lbs. I ski on the east coast, mainly 30% park 30% all mountain/groomers 30% trees (fairly skied in) and 10% "pow" (take that with a grain of salt, pow here is mainly less than two feet). This is going to be my one ski quiver. For all park days I'll have shit skis to throw at it, but i'd like to have something that can hold up on a couple rails a day.. I also love buttering (so a good flex is a must), and light setups. I don't have the most powerful legs. I'd also like to try out a rockered or early rise ski.

I'm changing out my entire setup, skis, bindings and boots. I was looking in to the Line SFBs, Marker griffons (110 or 130 brakes, and maybe the schizo to personalize mounting), and some sort of Full Tilt boots, (mainly cause they're super light). Would the SFBs be too thick? How are the Kung Fujas? Any other setups to recommend?

Thanks.
 
Line SFB might not be so great on rails. Still a good choice though. But K2 Kung Fujas would be a good ski, So would Armada ARV
 
I wouldn't be doing crazy spins on or off the rails, just sliding. Would the SFBs still be too big for rails? What about the Blends?
 
The SFBs are actually quite a bit of fun on rails. They are super playful and pressy and they are great skis for doing surface switch ups on. They also happen to rip jumps and be very agile in the trees. I would highly recommend them.
 
I would say armada ARV, its going to be fun all over the mountain and its really soft which is great for you since you like to butter.
 
sbfs would be a good choice but u may not ski enough pow to need a ski like that salomon 2012s are great for everything your lookingg for they can float are great in the park great in trees and great on groomers. also armada ARV are good
 
jmos are sick but im pretty certain they're stiffer than the others listed....

correct me if im wrong
