I am 5'9" 150lbs. Will be riding 60%park, 20% groomers and 20% pow. I know I can handle the Bacons but will it just be overkill considering the amount of pow that I ski. It seems like a smaller lighter ski would better suit my needs and probably be more playfull which I like. Which ski should I get in your opinion? Also Jesters or STH 12s?
 
uh lizzies for how much park your riding. but they might be a little small for you.
and i'd definitely go with the jesters. the 12s would be too small for you if you wanted to crank them up, and the jesters are a super sick binding
 
you should totes go for the Elizebeths, I'm 6'2" 190 and the bacons are still plenty of ski for me in the park. The bacons are a stiffer than the lizies and do much better off the groom and basically are a great all mountain ski. If you're in the park I think you'll be much happier with the lizzies, I'd almost say I would be too, but I don't want to admit it.
 
i just bought a pair of bacons and my roomate got some lizzies. Im psyched to be ripping the bacons even in the park, but im glad i still got some smaller old skis to rip in the park. not to mention grabbing the lizzies for a few runs here and there.
 
those were my second pair of elizabeths hermias. i rebought the first pair, with the castle and dragon
 
if you can go with the sth 14's they're lighter, cheaper, and probably more reliable than the jesters, also i'm pretty sure that the jesters don't have diagonal toe piece release.
