I need to pick up a new set of sticks. I know I want some twins for park(and lets fce it, for syle), but I dont want it to hurt my all mountain experience. Ive looked at uncountable amounts of skis. Here are my top choices so far, Volkl Karmas, 4Frnts, Armadas, Lines, etc etc. I ski mostly steeps and glades/bumps, but i definetly want to be a able to carve some turns on groomers. I will also be getting into park more this year. Thanks is advance.

 
Finally a decent post for a n00b. But anyway, the Karmas are decent skis. The lines arent too bad either. It all depends on whichever one you like the best. Go to your ski shop and see which ones they have and test out their flex patterns and if you like the ski up close. Pics online can be decieving. But Id probably say look towards either Line Motherships or Chronics, and the Karmas

Not realy a noob, been here for a while, just decided to join and post when i had a reason. PLus i have forum etiquette from umerous other places. Anywho, Motherships are to fat, chronics I like, but ive heard Karmas are heavy. So far Im leaning more towards an Armada model.

 
The only question I have is how big the sidecut is on the AR5s and ARVs. Searched to no avail. Also, the Karma seems like the most all mountain oriented twin, is this true?

 
ar5 turning radius is in the 18-21m range. dpendings on size. 160-180cm.
