So recently i have been wanting to upgrade my skis, and after a little research i have narrowed my search down to four skis: Line Chronic, Armada El Rey, Armamda ARV, and Moment Pb&J. Since i have not bought to many skis I dont know which one to choose. I am looking for the ski that is lightweight, with decent flex (butters) and holds its own in the park, is smooth on groomers and moguls, and can venture into some powder. I usually spend 60%of my time out of the park and 40%of my time in the park.

Oh and i was also wondering if anyone had a suggestion for the length of ski Ishould get, I am 5'6 130lbs, I am an advanced skier everywhere exept the park, where i can hit most rails and just got my first 360 (want to go bigger).

Any advice will be appreciated, if you feel anyother ski would fit these specifics feel free to post ithem. Sorry for the book. Thanks
 
Chronics slay, not to flexy, but a great ski. I am your exact height, and a little heavier 140 (Don't judge) I ride 160 park skis. So depending what your doing, rails you could go down 155, but jumps you may even go 165.
 
And I'm like 5'4" 125lbs and I'd go with moment pb&j I've heard of durabitlity issues but I'd still go for them. In also looking into a pair of FR jmos or Jeffrey's but haven't really decided yet.
 
You do know that FR is one of the skis that ON3P makes along with the jmos and jeffreys right? and OP, go with a 160 if you are wondering length. especicially if you do mountain. Chronics are too stiff if you cant handle a bigger ski, but still an amazing ski, Moment I want to say they are great but I havent had any personal experience, and Armada is going to be a great ski, and The El Reys would be a better choice over the ARVs just because the ARVs are stiffer, overall, Check out the Klint Pure skis if you can handle a bigger ski though. Im a little taller than you and same weight and I can rock 175's so it all depends on skill level if you do care a lot about length, if not go to my previous comment.
 
CHRONICS!!!!!!!!! Not too flexible, and a little time to get used to the butter zone stiffness but its an amazing ski!!!!!! I love mine to death!
