Which is best. 6 foot tall. Mostly park but some all mountain. I ski in Wisconsin. Plus we dont have a pipe.
 
well if u dont have a pipe then prolly get rid of the pipecleaner cuz one they are only making 500 of them so itl be hard to get ur hands on and two the ar6 is a bit better all mtn. id say the ar6 depending on how heavy u are, if ur real light then foil cuz its foam core but still the wood core in the ar6 is the balls
 
^ i disagree. i think the foil is far superior to the ar6 for all mountian. they are similar for park, but for all moutnain, the foil is for sure the better ski.

throw out the pipe cleaner, if you're not going to be using it as a competition big air/pipe ski, it's not worth it.
 
how can u disagree when the ar6 is wider than the ar5 and has a word core. the foils are a good ski and u are pretty light but if u charge all mtn then get the ar6
 
Wow im 6 foot 1 and 150 and im skinny so u must be a twig. Go foils for sure if ur that light but in like a 185. Dont listen to the foam core haters especially with u bein that light youll be fine
 
i am well aware that the ar6 is wider than the ar5, but guess what? it's still narrower than the foil. and so what if it has a foam core???? i hate when people assume that a ski has a foam core that it will be weak and flex out under loads. i weigh 170 pounds and i've hit some big fucking jumps on my foils, and they've never flexed out on me. look at my pictures if you don't believe me. i'm not saying the ar6 isn't a great ski, because it is... i just feel like you are unjustly accusing the foil of being weak, when is clearly is not.
 
i agree with you except for one thing....the Foil doesn't have a foam core. that's right, i talked to a salomon rep. and it's made of isocell which is much more durable and longer lasting than foam. so then next time someone says the Foil sucks because it's made of Foam, they are entirely wrong.
 
im not dissing the foils im just saying i trust wood cores more than foam cuz ive had foam core salomons and i wasnt impressed
 
once you take care of your eating disorder, get some ar6s. Theoretically if you continue with your eating disorder foils would be dope for you. definately not pipecleaners since the extra money is for stuff you dont need. But yea if you plan on staying 125 foils would be cool I'm so jealous of people small enough to ride foils! garr.
