Need a super durable ski for park only riding!!!!!!!

[Skigullgavin]

I’m a Minnesota park rider and I broke 2 pairs of skis this year already, I only ride park and mainly hit rails. I’m 5”4 125lbs and just need a ski that will hold up for an entire season for under 600$, any suggestions?

What were the skis you broke?

 

[Skigullgavin]

Elan pinballs(kinda cheap so I don’t blame them) and 2019 Armada arv 84 ( Edge blowout)

How bad is the edge blowout on the ARVs? Repair might be an option especially if you're only using them to ride park

I’m not looking to repair I’m looking for a durable ski for next year.

Pick up a pair of used ON3P Magnus' and they will for sure last you.

ARV84 edge blowout I’m not surprised. It’s a tweener ski with no sidewall. Like another poster mentioned, ON3Ps are pretty hefty. Honestly most park skis you get will be stronger than the two you mentioned. Both of those are cap construction and learner skis.

K2 poachers are pretty stout too. Libertys pretty tough too. Armadas generally are pretty tough as you go up in price. ON3P and Moments are considered some of the more durable skis on here.

Seconding Magnus or Poacher. Both are pretty stout skis. Poacher would be more in tune with your price point but the Mag isn't that much more.

If you ride all rails, you will eventually break any ski, so buy cheap ones. If it's for next season, look for skis in the sales in spring. Find a decent adult park ski in a short size, whichever comes up for a good deal but you should find something for $299 or less... and buy two pairs.
