I'm looking for some park skis, budget doesn't really matter as long as it's not crazy. I like more playful tricks but I wouldn't mind a more stable ski. Right now I'm looking at the Line Blends and the Vishnu Wets, but I'm wondering what other options there are. That's about it
 
I would look at reckoners, arv’s, and on3ps ive skied all of em supa good will work well in that wheel house
 
Theyre good soft on the tip an tails but stiff in the middle ish so fun but wont be noodles like the vishnus and they preform really well and wont break after like 2 mins
 
I wouldn’t call either of those skis stable especially at higher speeds. They’re purely park sticks, super soft and buttery. I don’t doubt that you’d love them, but I also don’t know how you ski… Tell us more about how u like to ski/what you’re looking for in a ski.

I've gotten past the basics of the park and I'm looking into more playful tricks now, like butter combos and tech rail hits. I just want something playful and versatile that I can hit whatever I want on

But really “stable” is a mindset so at a certain point we all got to grow up and realize thats not a real thing

I got the Bent 85s last season but they’re completely destroyed now. Only pair of skis I’ve ever owned

Do u ski exclusively park or do you enjoy spending time outside the park too ?
 
I know they're like the most anti NS skis ever, but the Volkl Revolt 95s are solid do-it-all park skis and you can cop a pair brand new for under $300 right now.

I’ll look into them, thanks bro. Great price
 
They’re fun for all mountain but I didn’t love them for park. The core is solid af for carving though.

The blend and wet will be on softer side. Depends really what your emphasis is. Seemed kinda contradictory when looking through your comments so I’m not sure. But were it me: I’d look into line chronic, Vishnu key, Fauna Alparka, and maybe Icelantic nomad 95. I think the revolt 104 would be pretty cool too.

Yeah I’m leaning towards the Wets, I kinda want something soft. Never seen Icelandic skis but they look pretty nice

all of those are great skis, and youd be stoked on any of them...but you keep saying "Butter" So I'd say pre order some Wets. Fuck the Blends.

Just a heads up that ARV is a very stiff ski.

Damn, I didn't see that before. I think I'm going to go with the BDogs anyways- I've been skiing Al Dentes for the past couple of years and I think it'll be an easier transition.
