I know this is my second thread in an hour on gear talk but im bored at work so fuck off.

Do the On3p FR's preform well on the east coast? I have a pair of Lib Tech Free rides I use when i go out west and am looking for a ski that can rip here on the east. I want a ski that's light and playful and made for the park, but will also carve on the hardpack and be quick enough to take into the woods at gore.

FR's are my #1 choice but I'm also considering ar7's (Thalls better?) or Line Chronics. Other suggestions welcome!
 
For a more powerful ski all mountain wise, id go with something like the soul rider. It will handle really well in the park even though it wasnt truly built for it.

If you are looking for more of a park ski, I would just get a park ski. I dont care what anyone says, park skis are park skis. There will be some marginally better than others, but in reality, no true park ski will handle all that well outside the park.

Maybe the el dente though, that seems like the only real legit ski on the market for what you are saying. A park ski that can handle elsewhere.
 
ive got al dentes and there sick everywhere. surprisingly so. ripped pow, killed park, super tight and aggressive on groomers.
 
Ive got rossi scimitars adn theyre sick. they hold up in the park and pow. with a 98mm waist and early rise tip and tail, theyre super fun to ski on.
 
ar7's all the way. They are insanely light, and they hold up well in all mountain. Also after a breaking them in they are pretty soft.
 
Line tcs are really fun in the park due to there symetrical shape, they are also soft when you want them and solid when you nees them. They are 93 mm under foot which provide the perfect mix for powder and the groomers. The early rise helps a ton in the slush or some summer snow. All in all these are a great one ski quiver
 
Thanks for the suggestions guys! I think I might actually buy a pair of 2011 ar7's off of SteezyEvok's
 
i would suggest a more all mountain fat ski like the al dente or the icelantic nomad rkr. even if we don't have that much pow here it's good to have an early rise fat ski to rip the trees getting there
 
I'm gonna go out on the limb and recommend rossignol scratch pros. They're a great all mountain park ski and even after a 100 or so days they were still in great condition. Super fun and soften up after a 10-15 days. they're on the house now for 350, good luck
