I'm just wondering what the best all mountain ski is, due to financial and living problems i've had to sell both skis i own. So now im wondering what is the best ski for hitting the park and the some what frequent pow days. I'm 5'11 160 and a pretty decent skier.
Been looking at the Arv's, Watch life's and the S3's. Is there anything else i should be looking at? any feedback on those skis? Just any help in general would be great.
 
Line Elizabeths, the kill the park and the pow and still rock it all mountain. Get them while their hot, cause they wont be back next year. The Line Blends are also super sick all mountain, they're a bit smaller underfoot so they're not a floaty in the pow, but still super fun all over the mountain.
 
yeah you really can't go wrong with any of these skis they all have really good track records. The ARV is a classic , and most always say good things about the others listed so you cant really go wrong in my opinion.
 
K2 obsethed. Stiff enought for charging, rockered for pow, soft enough for the park. And I think k2 has the most durable bases in the biz. Sick ski
 
this except that id have to say blends. i think they are better in pow because they are a bit stiffer and the tips are pretty big. lizzies are so much fun in the park tho....
 
I would probably get the Rossignol S3 or Line Sir Francis Bacon. Actually out of those two I'd prefer the SFB, especially next season's rockered version.
 
true but the current ones arent nearly as fun in the park and next years have rocker which will make them squirrly on hardpack. lizzies and blends from this year are better than sfb
 
ARVs are sick! I loving the Salomon Shogun and Dumont, they are both bad ass just depends on what you'll be skiing the most. If you'll be doing enough powder days the Shogun is where its at! Also take a look at the Alpha 2 they are sick from what Ive been told.
 
you should look at line blends. i have some and they shred everything, they are just wide enough to hit up some pow every once and a while, go to the park, and rip groomers. they are a stiffer ski and will be able to hold up anywhere you want to take them
 
This. I have this year's extremes. They kill the park and are really nice in the powder and on groomers. I would also suggest the volkl bridges. they are the best all-mountain ski made in my opinion.
