ARV100 or prodigy 2’s

[LP15]

Thinking about adding to the quiver while I have a pro deal. Would be for riding all mountain and some park. I’m 5ft 10 185 lbs and Colorado based. I was thinking 186 arv100 or a 183 prodigy 2, both are basically the same price. Thanks

Go armada. Faction?

Arv 100 is lighter and more playful by comparison so the Faction is better all mountain, ARV better freestyle basically

Will probably pick up arv100 in the spring but worry it will ski too similar to a bent100

Thanks for the replies everyone. I’m now wondering if it would be pointless to get the ARV100 when I already have an ARW106UL and ARV116 for powder days. Would the 94’s be a smarter move for hardback days? Thanks

i think so. personally i don't see a point in having similar skis with only 6mm waist difference

ARV 100 as a dedicated park ski is a bad idea. Karuba core is poopoo. Les Factions or ARV94 would be my selection

I can't speak to the new ARV lineup, but I think they are kinda mid.

Prod 2/3s are fun for all mtn, not the best park ski tho. Id suggest buying a park ski, buying an all mtn ski. Don't fall for the "one ski does it all". Expand your quiver with skis that make you happy, not skis that do something mediocre.
