Quick question for skiers

Sorry for kind of spamming, but I'm buying a pair of skis tonight and I have two choices.

2005 Line 1260

2005 K2 Fujative

Both are around the same price, so that isn't a big deal. I just want a quality, durable ski that I can have fun riding. I will probably be riding about 50% All-Mountain and 50% Park. To the more seasoned riders out there: which would you choose?
 
I could also get a pair of 2006 Line Prophet 80's. They are 186 and I am only 6'1, so is that too big? If not, consider that a choice too.
 
Well it doesn't sound like you've been skiing that long so 186 might be a bit long for you, but if it were me id take those, second choice being the fujis
 
fujis. they are soft and ive heard them to be a good ski to start off. line just isnt reliable.. go with the fujis and good luck
 
Fujatives are sick this year, nice graphic to. I have only heard good things about them. Good luck man and have fun.
 
get the prophets, they arent the best park ski out there but it will fit what u want since u are 50-50, best of both worlds out of the skis u have put up there,

but even better choices based on what u said there would probably be the:

177 line chonic

176 K2 public enemy

if i were u i would get the chronic or prophets, enemies are alright but they feel kinda unlively to me
 
Thanks for all the input so far guys. So far it is looking like Fujis or Prophets. I really like the ride-everything aspect of the Prophet since what I gather from the Fujis is that they are mainly park oriented and in some cases a bit of a noodle. I am really looking for the best quality ski I can get. I am leaning towards the Prophets, but are the a QUALITY ski. I have some about Line construction and quality problems and I want these skis to last, so any more input before I am forced to choose?

P.S. Thanks a lot guys seriously. This is one of the best forums I have seen for anything and you guys are really cool about everything, even to newer guys like me. Thanks again.
