K2 Poucher VS. Armada Edollo

[Loudee]

Hey.

I'm a skier that picked up on park this season. I bought myself a pair of Line Tigersnake 16/17 but they only lasted 2 months. Got the Tigersnakes 17/18 on my warranty. But after 1 month it happened again(I did not ride hard with these skis, neither did i leave them in my truck).

Now i can choose from K2 Poucher and Armada Edollo. I mainly ski park but, but if there is pow i ride pow. My level of skiing park is 90 on a rail(not urban style) and 180s, probably 360s in the next week.

I weigh around 55 kilos/ 121 lbs and my height is 170cm/ 5.7 inches.

Choosing ski tomorrow so need answer fast

If you're trying to progress in skiing. Getting a K2 Poacher or Armada EDollo won't help you. These skis both weigh a lot and ski totally differently from each other. I would recommend a Punx 5 to learn park and get good on. Then step up to slightly bigger skis and such

Volkl Revolt 95 then for sure. They'll be light, durable, and more all mountain variant than a 87.

I´ve looked up the weight of Revolt 95 and the Edollos. They weigh around the same though. Do you have any experience on the durability of the two?

- Thanks

Don't listen to him, the Poachers and edollos would be dope park skis to buy that will still have really good out of park performance. Personally I am a huge fan of my poachers and I do not notice the weight at all. They have a nice medium flex and have rocker that helps with all mountain performance. I've never ridden the edollos but I know people who have and they are another great all mountain park ski. I'd say get Wich ever one you like best. I'd get the poachers cause they tend to last longer and you can find them pretty easy and cheaper than edollos.

I own both ARV96 and Edollo's. I personally like the EDollos more. They're lighter and softer. But durability is going to be an issue with the ski. And especially if you're trying to progress and learn 2ons weight is going to be a big issue. Look at the Faction CT 1.0 or ON3P Magnus

Just to clarify, i get these skis free on my warranty. However i am just looking for a ski that can hold up the rest of the season and 2 weeks of summer skiing. Planning on buying ON3P Kartel 108 for the next season. Would the edollos hold?

I've currently charged them, flipped them, spun them on and off rails, done 720's off little side hits on cat tracks. Great ski just worried about durability. I've heard some people have spent 2 seasons on their bdogs tho
