So, im an east coast skier who has been skiing on 2015 Armada Alpha X's (171) for the past few years. No problems at all structurely, they are kinda bombproof but a put heavy, top sheet damage is defiently prominent as I like to ski a lot of park but also rip it up all over the mountain. I am thinking of getting new skis for next season but I don't know which ski to get or if i should size up to 177. I am about 5'9 and 160 lbs. I am thinking of sticking with armadas, because my alphas have been so good to me, but i do kind of want a more playful ski than the alphas were.

sincerely,

Confused ice coast skier

how about on3p? Magnus or Jeffrey

Def a go on the size up u could even consider low 180s and still be ok for park and better suited elsewhere , but maybe keep it in 177ish if u like park n trees

C heck out the online blisters buyers guide they give a real good review of skis and gear

and ski essentials on you tube has some good camera shots for looking at skis and kinda seeing what they look like if that amuses you

some real knowledgeable guys on here too could point you the right way , you really gotta describe your style and understand exactly how to describe what you want out of a ski

I feel like a broken record recommending ON3P's so much. But they are seriously such an amazing ski I cant help it. I had to recommend Dollos this time so I didn't sound like a total fan boy.

Also I own Edollos are really do recommend them too.
 
They seem to check every box, easy recommend

what’s your bsl , you got a lotta skis I’d like to “try” tho I already know it’s gonna b a woodsman or Jeffrey that I buy once I sell some things

Are the new blends holding togther well? I haven't skied Line in a while and i just remember a lot of my friends having trouble with them. Not blends in particularily, more their entry level park ski in the Mastermind.
 
All their skis are doing well across the model line there’s just some bad apples in the bunch once in a while and they have decent customer service and warranty there

u want bombproof buy on3p or center mount some Stocklis that sounds fun

310. If your at Wisp give me a shout your more than welcome to give em a shot. I should be at snowshoe later this month. I’m looking to sell the All Plays soon most likely. Too much overlap in my quiver.
 
Thx man that’s awesome of ya

my obsession/impulsiveness has led to quiver overlap as well
