Armada ARV 86 or 96

So I am going to either get The ARV 96 or 86 for my next ski. I currently am using the line TW shorty and it is super light, but the 149 is too small for me. I am 5 2 and 100 lbs, and can do 7's, 2's out of rails, learning to swap and need a durable ski. Should I take the jump from a 75 mm waist to a 96, or just. go for the 86 and have a lighter weight? I am planning on getting 163 cm. Any other skis you have in mind?

they're two great choices. in my mind it's basically get the 96 if you have any interest in a do-it-all ski, get the 86 if you want a park-only ski. theyll both work great for whatever but the 96 will be a little better for soft snow and all mtn and the 86 will have the pure-park advantages of being a little skinnier
