Best park ski

Looking to get a pair of park skis that is also really good as an all mountain ski. I ski New England and I'm 5'2" looking for a pair. I have been looking at the line honey badgers 2024 for 200 new and 155cm. I also have been looking at the k2 reckoners 92 which are 209 new for 159cm. So which of those would you recommend. Or if you have a recommendation for another ski under 250.

Most day I will ski all mountain but other I might go heavy on the park.
 
Line TW pro is one of the best park skis on the market right now. arv94 is a close second if you want something a bit wider it will be better for all mountain.
 
Both will be great in the park, and both will be a decent, playful all-mountain ski. But they are also known for having durability issues. If you’re looking for a ski that will last an entire season of all mountain riding and some occasional, heavy park use, you might want to bump the price range up a bit. If that’s not possible, go with the Reckoner

My friend had honey badgers and he said he liked them but they’re not very durable they were getting scratched up and delaminated after like 2 weeks

Yeah that’s probably the biggest problem with line but their skis are very fun to play around with.
 
Def do not go with the poachers if you need A park ski. It’s the closest thing you can get to a 2x4 without actually skiing on two planks. Extremely stiff and heavy, and impossible to do butter tricks on. They’re a good all mountain ski though.

Skill issue tbh. I don’t have much of a problem buttering my poachers at all

You can butter pretty much everything with enough practice. Get better and count your days weatcoast
 
New Reckoner construction has me leaning toward a pair of Reckoner 102s myself.

Also idk if the Honey Badger is still using the cap sidewall construction that Line’s been using on their budget skis for years but I’d stay away from that kind of sidewall. Yeah it’s lightweight but it probably won’t last long.
