Salomon Suspects for first year park rider

shit, i hit enter by accident.

alright would suspects(09/10) with STH 12s mounted center be good for someone just looking to start park on the east coast. mostly skiing small hills with basic park. so a litttle bit of jumping and some jibbing. really strong freeskiier jsut never really had a twin so looking to start park this season.

Im not sure about the suspects...alot of people on here had a terrible time with them last year
 
Armada AR6 is softer, lighter, more playful than suspect.

Suspect is stiff and that makes it boring when you're jibbin.

Also STH Non driver toe are crap.
 
whats your height and weight? and unless you like a stiff ski, or youre skiing a lot of all mountain with it as well, then a softer ski may fit you better. the suspects may be okay because you wont be pushing them to their limits, but why take the risk when theres so many other skis out there. other skis that will be softer, more playful, and probably a better time would be armada ar6 and thall, liberty LTE, on3p blue steele, line anthem, atomic punx, and others for some reason i cant think of right now. really it depends on your preference (stiff, medium, or soft flex and symmetrical or non symmetrical) and your height and weight
 
im 6ft 4 and use suspects so teh stiffness isnt a problem for me. yeah there stiff but as for a first time park ski id say no. if you can get a pair of fugatives they are an awesome beginning park ski. i love my suspects and theyve held up amazingly well considerring how i use them, but if it was my first year in park they would not be my choice
 
Yea suspects aren't the best first park ski. I'd suggest an ar6, township, or tnk's something strong and durable that will hold up well.
