Help me find skis

I am looking to get some new skis for the upcoming winter.

I like rails and the jumps at my hill aren't very big

The past two seasons I have been on a 177 Volkl Wall.

This year I want a longer ski and something that has a lot more flex. The wall is a fun ski, but too stiff IMO.

I have been looking at skis like: Nordica Soul Rider, Fatypus L-Toro, Line Blend, Armada ARV

That style of ski (really wide, lots of flex and rocker, super playful all over the mountain) look really fun and I want to give them a try.

Looking for something around 181.

The wall has a symmetrical tip and tail, and is 87 under foot. Will it be a big deal or weird to get used to going from that to a ski that will be like 100 underfoot and no symmetrical tip and tail?

Basically, which ski should I get +k
 
gear talk but I would consider armada T-Hall. Soft in the tips and reasonably stiff on tail. Pretty durable too.
 
Well, if you want a bit of a more all mountain ski, don't get THalls cuz I'm pretty positive there's no early rise with is gonna suck when you eat shit in some deeper snow. I don't really know why u want all those fat skis but I' love line so go blend. I would take chronically over blends though, they do pretty good everywhere but this goes in gear talk
 
I went to France last year. We had actually planned to visit Eze for ski but then people over there suggested us to visit courchevel because the skis near vente chalet de luxe courchevel was having 8 to 10 % of slope. So since a year has passed away and it snowed a lot this year in France. Its quite genuine that the slope must have became more slant and far more enjoyable !!
 
have you considered the Volkl Kink? it's got the same bomber construction as the Wall but in a more user friendly shape with rocker so it's nicer for the butters, rails, etc... i've got both and they're a ton of fun.
