I'm 18, 160 5 foot 10 and I ski on the east coast, primarily mt snow, ski sundown and other small mountains in ct. I want a ski for park and trees mainly rails tho. I already have 2021 line blends. I like them but I find that they are too unstable and too wide in the trees when I don't get powder(99 percent of the time and when I do get powder its never enough that the blends cant handle), I would like something less wide and have just a little less flex, and that are more durable than the blends cause they have 2 cracks in them and some core shots. I was thinking about the new line 94 chronics vishnu wet wet plus key armada arv 94. if you guys have any other skis I should consider buying please let me know. ps I cant afford on3p.

i highly recommend the oakley osama pros, one of the hottest skis in the market and are limited edition
 
do some research, no vishnu is going to feel better than your blends. ARV or Chronic is what you're looking for from your asking criteria

what bout the wet plus tho
 
You could by ON3P’s off snowshare, got mine for 350 and they only have one edge crack. Keys are 90 underfoot i believe and pretty stable, they’re basically an Edollo from what I’ve heard.
 
Id go with Armadas, ive always found them to be durable and when shit gets icy they are going to be a lot more fun than the Vs.

I just feel like I need something a lot less narrow than the blends and that's why I don't wanna go with the keys or the chronics or the arvs and the arvs look really stiff and my buddy that has them says that they are really stiff so I would like something a little more stiff than blends but not a 2x4 and more narrow.

Idk man I got the 171 wets have around 13 days on them and they feel so much more stable than my blends ever have even on ice even after the blends were tuned and I detune the wets

you definitely should've gone through other threads before buying 171 wets ?
 
i like my head oblivion 84s for east coast. kind of a boring ski but super stable, good on hardpack and pretty damp. its shit in powder but it seems like thats not your main priority. never tried them but the arv 84 or 88 also seem like good options for days with less snow.
