Help me choose skis.

[joly.sp]

I have been looking at getting 2 skis. K2 fuagtives, and Salomon 1080 flyers. As you may have guessed I am on a budget.

They will be used for park maybe 60-75% of the time. They will be used quite a bit on rails so they need to be durable. Which ones do you guys think are better? Or any other skis around the same price range.

height and weight?

 

[poofartpee]

flyers are a begginer intermediate ski, fujative is an actuall park ski...in my opinion they both suck but nw matter what ur stats are (height, weight, abitity etc.) the fungitive will be better most likely

I am 5'6 and 120lbs. My ability level at park is about intermediate. Skiing just powder and trees are something I also want to do, and am pretty good at.

Any other suggestions, help?

Fujatives have good flex in the front and are stiff in the back. they can hold their own in the park but ive heard they suck at all mountain.

Would K2 Silencers be a better choice for an all round twin? And does anybody know anything about the 2008 Rossignol Blast skis???

Here's the link. http://www.evogear.com/skis/rossignol-scratch-blast-2008.aspx

If they are being used in the park for 60% of the time, then I would reconsider. Fujatives & Flyers are mainly park skis, I don't believe they have enough backbone to ski all mountain. You can find fujis for around $194... Flyers are around $219I'm assuming you're lookign for something under $200?

It's haard to find a decent all mountain ski for that price... but I would take a look at the Troublemakers '07. On EvoGear they are $229. They're great, they ski great everywhere. I've got a pair. I can't say I'm disappointed. Free shipping to lower 48 too.

The max price I wanted was $500 with bindings. In Canadian because I live in Kamloops, BC.

I read in a magazine that the Flyer was perfect for an all mountain skier who likes to jump a bit. I ski more park than all-mountain, so I thought that flyers were a good choice?
