I am a experienced all mountain skiing and started skiing in the park last year. I will be spending a lot of time in park for the next few years and was wondering what skis to get but I was thinking line afterbang 2014 or Armada Al Dente 2015. I want a nice ski that is durable someone please guide me in the right direction.
 
Neither of those skis are durable. We need some more info about you. How wide do you like your skis, how soft fo you like them, do you do jumps or rails mostly

What's your height weight and price range? Style of skiing?

I like soft skis that are buttery but durable and light. I'm just below 5 ft and about 90 pounds

Icelantic da nollies are very buttery and also very durable. Alot of my friends have them and they love them.

Liberty antigens are also more buttery than dentes (IMO) and are pretty durable.

Look at the K2 Domain. Super buttery and pretty durabke, especially for its price. It has quite some rocker so they ski short. Those would work for you. Another option is the Faction 1.0 junior. They are size 155 and are very light and durable. They are pretty soft because they are a junior but ski like the regular 1.0 but just in a lighter package. Check out the Domain and Faction 1.0 Junior

Thank you I just can't seem to find any faction 1.0 juniors anywhere. Those are the skis I'm looking for

Shoot I can't find them anywhere. I know there are last years on Evo I believe. You could wait for next years and try to get a pre season deal
 
I would just get a bigger sized junior ski. At 90lb you are not exactly going to be punishing any skis. Save money, get a jr ski model.

What skis do you have in mind
 
honestly I think the armada AR7's woudnt be a bad option their not to much money, they come in a smaller size and are a great ski to start skiing park on. Their also very durable, the only down part is that their not that fexable. But considering your getting a smaller ski it should be easier to flex/butter.

I think I am going to wait for the 2016 faction Candide 1.0 junior
 
OP, put some serious thought into the revision talisman. they are exactly what you described, buttery and fun, slay it in the park, but I also used them in big mountain comps last year. they also come at a fraction of the price of the rest of the models on here. stay tuned and Ill post a discount code for you too.

This sounds like you are a paid schill. seriously, you don't sound like a credible sources. You also sound like an idiot.

OP any Jr 'tweenée' twin tip that is 150-155ish with an 80ish width underfoot. When I was your size I had the k2 mini enemy.
 
Sorry cobra, didn't see op's height and weight.

Op, at your size the 166 talisman would probably be a bit large. They are soft but you'll want to go with something smaller if your main focus is park. The discount code is mwood if you do end up taking a look at the revisions
