Hey guys!

I'm currently in the process of looking for a one ski quiver (Can't afford 2 skis), just to give some background knowledge; I am 5'8, and I weigh 126 pounds. Anyways, I've looked over quite a few different skis, the ones that seemed to get decent feedback were the Bacons, and the Moment PB&J's. If you guys could give some feedback that would be sweet, also wondering what bindings would be good with the skis that you suggest, or the ones I've already suggested. A little extra to keep in mind, it would be nice to keep the price of the skis/bindings under $700, I can get about $100-150 off the total price.

Thanks in advance.
 
Do you ski more park or more all mountain/ powder?

For all mountain park skis you could look at the k2 recoils, the armada ar7's, or the line chronics.

For more all mountain oriented that you could still use in the park you could take a look at the armada arv's, line blends, on3p jeronimos, or the k2 kung fujas.
 
i would say they both do the job well. the blend is a far more flexy ski than the bacon. the bacon has more early rise and the blend more camber. the running surfaces are barely different. they both have the same tech. the blend is cap wall and bacon sidewal,l both burly constructions. the blend may be lighter but you could easily put that down to the 8mm more under foot and the generally extra width of the bacon. they really just sit either side of the perfect 1 ski quiver from line with the blend being more park orientated with its weight, width and flex and the bacon is more towards the big mountain/bc/powder with its extra width, more early rise, the early taper and the stiffer flex.
 
I personally love FKS/Pivot Bindings and would put them on anything I buy. Can't go wrong with the Rossi FKS 140 or Look P14...
 
x3. this is my do everything ski at vail. i know patrollers here love them too, even great with quick laps through the park
 
If youre thinking of Lines, I just picked up the new Influence 115. It is wider but can dominate the resort groomers and awesome in Pow. I put marker barons on them for the side country. It's my personal one ski quiver. But I wont ever be in the park. IDK if thats something you want or not. But im pretty excited for them and I think they make a pretty good one ski quiver depending on where you are. Maybe check out a review or two
