As much as i dont want to be another one of those guys asking for new ski advice, but I could really could use a few recommendations since the ski market is pretty huge.

Im 5'10"

155lbs

advanced skier i guess, needs something to take a trashing

Im looking for a ski that is park orientated but can handle some back country, I live in the midwest but i do go west a descent amount and love hitting bowls and chutes while im there.

I need new skis because my 155 salomon threats are pieces of shit and look like ski blades haha

Im looking to spend under $500, it would be nice to be between $350-$450 (selling my ipod and donating plasma for cash moneyy)

Thanks

(sorry if i forgot to include any information, let me know if i forgot to cover something)
 
oh and a couple skis ive been looking at-

Bluehouse Antics 175 ($329)

Line Chronics 173/8 (a lil pricey $500)

(would love blends but theyre $600)

Line Mastermind 167 or 177 ($329)

Atomic Punx 173 ($400)

Thats about all ive looked at, clearly not that big of list. I dont really care what the graphics are like
 
Im 5'9 and rode 173 punx. And it was the most fun ski I ever owned untill it snapped.

Its a really light, medium-soft flex ski. If I were you I would go 182 because they measure 180cm.
 
Surface Watch Lifes. 100 in the waist, regular camber, kills it everywhere. I know quite a few people who say they preform amazing in the park.
 
check out skigenie.com for some recommendation. you can either use the program or just browse and filter skis on your own.
