AR5's vs. Chronics?

I am considering buying either 04-05 Line Chronic 177's and 04-05 Armada AR5 180's, and am wondering if anyone has any suggestions on which ski I should get. I ski about 50-50 park and all mtn, and want something that is durable for rails and boxes, yet stiffer so I can still carve on the groomers, plus something that's decent in pow. Any suggestions on which ski is better? Oh btw, im 5'11" and 170 lbs, and have been skiing for 13 years.

 
they are pretty much the same shit, the chronics will be cheaper and prob a tad stiff (someone correct me if im wrong) so yeah

what's up now bitch

Try demoing both of them once the season starts?

get the ar5, its awsome in pow cas its pretty wide, and yet its got crazy pop on the jumps and its awsome for the park.

both of the skis are about the same width underfoot or not enough difference to tell in the pow. these sticks are fairly similar, i would probably go on what graphics you like better or what is cheaper

 
see which one gets you off faster when you masterbate to a picture of them. that's how i buy skis.

Chronics are stiffer and have better graphics than last years AR5's.

They both are not going to be so hot in deep stuff, they're only 80mm under foot or right around there, so buy whatever you think look sbetter or can get cheaper.

 
www.untracked.com had gold chrons a few weeks ago I beleive, if not another site I was on did.
