Anyone ridden this years El Rey?

Started skiing at the end of this year and decided i want to switch from snowboarding. Ive been looking at the Armada El Rey because it's supposed to be durable and good on everything and it's cheap. I live in Iowa so all i ride is park because there's nothing else.

Reviews say its a good all around ski for your first twin tips or getting into park skiing.

Looking for some real feedback though. Is this really a good ski for me to get or should i look in to something else and why.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
 
going to be solid for a $399 park ski, but they won't be quite as durable as a $500-$600 park ski. Still, for someone who is switching from snowboarding and looking to learn, it is a great ski. medium flex, easy to play on, still will perform at speed.
 
their durability is shitty from my experience, the kid i ski with got them this winter and on the 3rd rail he hit, he slid out and broke the tip off. it wasn't a hard fall by any means and it just folded the tip right in half.
