Lightest park ski and binding setup?

yeah i have the atomic punx jr from last year and they're about as durable as a cardboard box. No wonder why they discontinue the junior version after one year..... Anyways something durable would be ALOT better. AND don't be afraid to list skis that are heavy ONLY underfoot but really light at the tips for really light swing weight
 
most junior skis are as durable as a card board box. Punx are a pretty durable ski, just that binding i listed is really heavy. I would say for a bomb proof setup that is pretty light would be:

Atomic Punx w/ Marker Griffon

 
no when i posted that the comment above mine wasnt there but the one above his was. the one with the link. thats the one it was intented for.
 
Oh word, my apologies. I actually have that exact setup - last year's Punx and Marker Griffons. I friggin love them, and it really is a light setup. Swing weight really isn't a problem since the ski is fully symmetrical and light as hell, and durability wise they seem pretty good. The topsheet chips like a motherfucker but I guess that's not a big deal.
 
well,up untill mine did this i would have said they were extremely durable, i rode them for like 80-100 days and they had no edge cracks. but the base on one started to get fucked up and then the other ski did this

4frnt click! and marker griffon or liberty lte´s and griffon or as i have myself rossignol sorm and marker griffon
 
I was surprised it took this long for te lte to be mentioned. I wouldnt use griffons though. Fks/pivot ftw!
 
How on earth did you get the ski to snap going down into the snow like that?? Shouldn't it have snapped like up from te snow from a landing or what haha!

But in my opinion to find a light ski your going to want a pretty narrow one like the surface 9 lifes but there kind of shitty quality. Amplid and liberty have some nice light durable skis and if you want light bindings go with pivots or fks. Griffons aren't durable compares to the much better mad jesters but which are heavier. Fks/pivots are light and durable
 
hey does anyone know how much the a. tomic punx at 164cm weigh in grams? all the other skis say on the site but atomic doesnt and i can't find it.
 
This ski really isn't light but i had the 2007 voekl ledges up until last year.... Those skis are durable as SHIT i was blown back by that ski. I do not know about the new ledges but i would seriously look into that because the skis that i had four seasons of 30 trips a year, and then a pretty rough drop in session at least once a week. Not to mention all i ski is rails and i smash my skis on the rail when i mess up bad.
 
how about you do some wall sits, core work and whatever. get jacked and any setup will be light.

problem solved. just takes time and if you have dumbbells its free.

then you can rock a durable setup :D
 
I have AR7 W/ PX-12s which i didnt think were light at all, but when i tried on my friends 2012s with sth 14s i was amazed at how he even can jump with them on
 
K2 press 169 with marke free 10's or rossignol axium 110

I like the volkl ledge aswell but I wouldnt consider it cheap
 
light and durable go together, but it won't be very cheap.

light and cheap go together, but it won't be very durable.

durable and cheap go together, but it won't be very light.

There will always be a compromise, whether it affects your wallet or the product is the choice you will have to make.
 
The best way to get a light, durable, "cheap" ski is to buy last year's model. You'll save at least $100
 
probably the heaviest park ski you can get and the shittiest bindings you can buy. Dont listen to this guy
 
ok you also should factor in quality of materials, invaders(along with anthems and afterbangs) are made with fucking terrible materials
