im debating between the two. They will be just for shreddin pow in whistler and where ever else there is pow. I lookin for jibby pow ski but can still hold its own on mini putt and some bigger more open face stuff.

im like 5'9 180lbs

and i already have prophet 130s but i figured they would over lap enough tho

wat do you peeps think?
 
i got the CRJ and i was looking for a ski to do the same things you said...either way should be fun, there both similar
 
I asked this + a few other similar skis on TGR, and the one person(Marshal) who had skied these, night trains, ARGs, , , , said that he thought the CRJ was the best pow jib ski, followed by Night Trains, then Chetlers. Honestly Chetlers may be scary small for you, I was about 160lbs when I demoed them and they seem so short!

Another one to consider for pow jibbing, and probably the best of all these when you take it to big faces, is Surface LL2s/ One Lifes. SURFACE has fucking awesome customer service, One Lifes are the lightest of all these skis named, and they will charge the best because they are 189s and are the stiffest(of these). Also the 3 stage rocker apparently is great for park.
 
Just got mine, they look pretty sick in person, although when my 188's were put beside my K2 obsetheds (179) they were pretty much the same length, K2 measurements are always short....the flex on the CRJ's is nice, soft towards the tip med/stiff under the boot, the rocker on the tip is fairly large, maybe a bit too large for my liking but we'll see what happens when they hit snow.....

Little confusing I guess, the K2 179cm Obsethed is actually ~184cm, I just measured the 188 CRJ and it is 186.7cm tip to tail....
 
i'm pretty sure k2 measures running surface...IE, from contact point to contact point, not tip to tail
