Hey, so I ski in Quebec, Canada, am an advanced skier that skis mostly park(85-90% of the time) but also around the mountain a little bit and, I'm looking for some rather lightweight and snappy park skis . I am 15, weight about 145 pounds a mesure 5'9. My budget would be no more than 450 maybe 500$ without bindings.
Good park skis?

I am assuming you want a waist width of something in the 80's since you want them to be lightweight. the armada AR7 is a solid ski for what you want, I also ski in Quebec and the guys I know that have them say nothing but good things. if you want to save some money but still get a pretty good ski, then the k2 sight is a great option. k2 sights cover what you said you wanted in a ski and are going for $221.90 on the evo outlet website right now.
if you want a snappy ski, look at Volkl (walls sound right up your alley), Liberty, APO, Nordica, RMU, Fischer, and a a few others, but alot of companies (Armada included) make a ski that gives some pop, but not a lot of snappiness. I rode on some old Armada AR6s and they were much snappier and poppier than the 2013 AR7s that I tried out. Not sure why they would ever do that, but something to consider if you are looking at Armada. Still a damn good ski though.
