^ ar5 pure park? - i thought it was substantially stiffer than most pure park skis? havent ridden them so could be wrong

 

[dom_uk]

scratch fs definately can hold its own on piste, dont know about the thruster or stl

 

[-+Siver+-]

invaders

 

[ColoradoFlats]

stiff usually just means they perform better in the pipe...

 

[bobs]

fujis, thalls, and invaders and i would ignore most of boloneys comment

 

[Dust_Head]

Never skied them but what about the Volkl Dogen's

 

[Matty_C]

volkl dogen too, your right.

you people need to chill, i'm just offering my opinion.

nomensteven- how many of those i named have you ridden? I've ridden them all:

I accept scratch fs is good out of park.

Thruster is wank all mountain, if it was good they wouldn't make the foil...

ar5 is completely park targetted- 80mm waist and 28m radius!!! not nearly enough shape for anything else...

atomic triplets pretty park orientated, more rails than kickers tho.

mjo 80 and tms both good in park and too skinny for all mountain.

I love my fuji's outside of park, but I guess over-all they are a park ski

 

[skiRay]

scratch fs, thall pros, invaders, cr pro model,

 

[lukew06]

[D-40]

[Public_Maverick]

dogens, spk's, thruster fo sho, dumonts, fujitives, t$'s, urban trips, deviants, butterlicious, stealth/chopper/predator, stls

and thats not even half

 

[Edward.]

invaders, ar5's, thalls, 1260's, fujies, liberty choppers, ninthward butterlicious, ninthward mip's, liberty stealth

 

[shitthewhat]

you're either dumb or you don't know how to ski. ar5's are not pure park.

 

[Matty_C]

what the fuck else would you ride ar5 for?? not on piste fo sure, and way too skinny for backcountry... so where else?

 

[shitthewhat]

ON PISTE.

LEARN TO CARVE FOR FUCK SAKES.

my friend has his ar5's center mounted and he still carves hard enough to recognize which line is his from the top of the lift.

 

[Eazy_Eags]

dude the AR5 kills it outside of the park on piste. you have no idea wat yuor talking about

 

[japanada]

Why would the pros ride taht in the BC b4 the big troubles came out?? there are so many shots of the phils kililng kickers in the BC and trees onm the TMs

my list

invader

thall

fuji

dogen

ar5 isnt b/c armada has the thall

 

[ImperialFlow]

dogen

stl

fuji

t-hall

butterlicious

scratch pro

invader

flyer

ruis

That's about all I can think of that's distributed in the US.

 

[ImperialFlow]

oh, and choppers

 

[ImperialFlow]

though I guess the scratch pro is technically a grom ski... I've seen lighter guys in the park on them because they liked the super-noodliness of them... don't ask me why.

 

[japanada]

i dont think that the liberties are a park only ski cause thye are sooo stiff they easily handle the whole mtn, much like the PEs

 

[bobs]

boloney- when people refer to "pure park skis" it is normaly because of their flex patterns(ie soft or butter points) not because of their specs and whether or not the ski is wide enough for the bc

 

[chapz]

yeah same, theyre not bad outside the park

 

[Matty_C]

ok fine, agree to disagree.

you should know i raced at national level for 4 years... i know how to carve

 

[EClay46]

would 03-04 skogens be pure park?
