Ar6 vs Fischer Addict

[crouchingnegro]

Any thoughts on which would be a better buy? I live on the East Coast and ski about 80-90% park.

 

[crooks]

What about:

- Your height

- Your weight

- What you ski most of the time (or break it down into percentages as that seems to be a popular way of doing it on here)

- Your skiing ability level

the addict not doubt

 

[garrett.]

ar6 ar6 ar6

 

[cobra_commander]

Addict from what you have said. plus they look better.

 

[poofartpee]

well the addict is in the freeskier buyer guide "editors quiver" and the Ar6 arent so thats self explanitory

 

[-Tristan-]

well at 80-90% park i wouldgo with a ski like the Tammer Hall pro model, the 4Frnt STL,line anthems, or simon dumont pros . however out of thoes two i could go with the AR6, sick ski from a sick company

 

[buckweet]

ar6

 

[Greenish]

i want the addict so bad. its such a sick ski

 

[dwalk]

addict is more park oriented so yah the addict

 

[deleted4]

addicts are cheaper, lighter, and centered stance..

what else do you need?

 

[Schoening]

addicts are so dope

 

[jns^]

so the addict which is a true twintip ski wouldt be good in 80-90 % park ? get you shit together.

 

[fischerrider]

the addicts are sick, i'm getting them this year

 

[Triple_Strum]

I love how no one in this thread has ridden them but said they are sick Perhaps they are, but dont say that based on colors...

 

[cobra_commander]

freeskier buyers guide like them Spong likes them (I know he is sponsored by them) And Fischer made some sick twins last year.

 

[Schoening]

i did once and i loved them.

 

[boobie]

someone described the addicts flex to me as similar to ar5s so both of those skis should be pretty similar but id say the addicts are just that much hotter

 

[Tha_Grouch]

AR6 or T-hall. just b/c. thats why.

 

[Chicken_P]

get ninthward comtes

 

[mberky07]

Addicts kill it for sure! i rode them from January through the season. Great park ski but also kills it all mtn.

 

[iLikeToSkii]

Does anybody know what the swing weight is for the Addict? Is it heavier or lighter than the STL's swing weight?

 

[titsLOL]

ar6s look sooo dope for all mountain, but for that much park addicts fo sho

 

[boobie]

id say they are pretty even...except addicts cost less and look cooler

 

[Grimace.]

addicts's graphics are not even on the same playing field as the ar6, but as for what you described i think the ski you should be compairing to the addict is the thalls.

 

[Christian_Schum]

ive ridden the addicts..i did for three weeks over the summer, and they hold up nice and can ski the ice and the sluch and everything in the middle..the center mount makes them dope..i have one mounted one way and the other the other way..they look sick and they ski better then anything i have ever used

 

[III]

so you guys are saying the AR6 will probably be stiffer and better for all mountain than the addict?

 

[Getter]

yes^, the ar6 are better for all mountain

 

[NWFlow]

Yeah, thats getting really out of control. Freeskier's usually right, but lets give it a little time.

 

[MALONE]

Seen both skis ARMADA no question

 

[Schoening]

not skied...

i've skied the addicts and they are so dope, i loved them

 

[MALONE]

didnt need to ski them to see which one was a better ski, like I said no question. The construction of the new ARMADA's is soooooooo good, ar5's were nice skis but the ar6's are rediculously strong.

 

[thepimpestskier]

ive ridden both (ar6 only once) I would personally go with the addict, dont get me wrong the ar6 is a great ski, but the addict is amazing in the park and holds it own outside the park

 

[MALONE]

clearly, you ride for fischer.........

 

[thepimpestskier]

clearly, you havnt skied the addict

 

[threejay]

clearly, your dad works for fischer..haha

 

[MALONE]

I didnt need to ski to know I wouldnt like it, and the three two week old pairs that were falling apart was good enough info for me

 

[Christian_Schum]

armada is shit

 

[chronic9]

addicts

 

[thepimpestskier]

he said armada is shit not armada is the shit

 

[nothanks]

hahahaah goood comparassion....

regardless of how similar the skis are...go Armada, they like you way better than Fischer.

 

[Christian_Schum]

armada doesnt care about you..they just want your fucking money

 

[Addictunr]

Fischer is going to be far more durable and it will be a little stiffer so you can ski it outside the park if you really wanted. WAY CHEAPER cheapest twin tip you can get......
