Recoil vs. Domain

To start off, I know these skis are very different but I still need advice. Also, help from anyone who has risen both would be great.

I'm 6' 185 I ride 99% park and mostly rails (don't reply domains yet, chill) this year I plan on really working to get my jump and rail game at relatively equal levels. So I was wondering how playful recoils are, and how sturdy domains are on bigger jumps. (70/30 rails/jumps) I will be hitting hostly 20-30ft jumps, but once a week I will make a trip to a better resort with bigger jumps 40-60ft and I want to know which ski will perform the best during my season?
 
recoil in this arguement for sure. domains will wash out like crazy on a 6 footer. but why are you so set on k2, i would check out Atomic infamouses which will handle it all or ON3P filthy riches, or armada thalls
 
I rode on the recoil as a demo and you are going to want the recoil with your build. I really didn't like how they rode though but domains would just have too much flex for you. You have the same build as shea flynn and I have not seen him on domains in a long ass time.
 
I love my recoils they are stiff but you can still press and butter on them.. Very playful easy to ollie and ski switch. like I said they are stiff enough to bomb and stomp the big jumps. I've never skiied teh domains so I can't say much about them but recoils are well rounded ski probly my favorite park ski as well as all mountain..
 
seriously, I was hitting 70's with the domains, and stomping every thing. I have both skis and can say that i honestly love my domains more, but i think for ur situation the recoils may be better, what size are you looking at?
 
do not get the 169.... im 5'8 and rode the 169's then swapped up to the 179s.....( 179 recoil is extremely stiff for me)
 
Get the recoils and if you are a pretty experienced skier, get a size of ski a little taller than you, unless you are doing all park, then get a ski around your height, but if not get a bigger size.
 
haha, then yeah, i would go with the recoils, since ur a big guy they should be sorta flezy and they'll hold up for ya!
 
I rode on 179 recoils and im 5'11. I would not settle for anything but the 179 length if you were to get either recoil or domains.
