Skis For Next Season

I am going to get a ski from this season for next, so they are cheap. I like to ski park a lot, but I also enjoy skiing all over the mountain with my dad. I want a ski the will perform well in any type of conditions and all over the mountain, I also plan on skiing them for a few seasons, so I need something relatively durable. I ski on the east cost and I am about 5’ 6” and 125 lbs. I am only 15 so I plan on growing a few inches before next season. Can anyone give me any suggestions on which ski and size to look at for the type of skiing I do?
 
dude get the dyna tm's they have a good radius and are an amzing ski for a good price theyre edges are shitty if you do alot of rails and large gaps on to rails but other than that the ski is sweet
 
If the tm's edges suck I dont know if I want them because I do a nice amount of rails. Also, how simiar are the foils to the 03/04 1080's because they are what I ski right now?

My local shop has a lot of armada skis, how are they?
 
^the foils will please you if you like your 1080s. and most people on here love armadas so those would be a good bet. go with the ar5's if you live out east and the arv's if you live in the west. and i'd say 170-175 length
 
Chronics, they'll feel pretty stiff right now, and as you gain some weight and grow they'll still be stiff enough for you not to wash out and ski all mountain.
 
Are you sure I should have skis that big? I was thinking about 160-165.

My 1080 are 151 cm, because I got them last year when I was much shorter.
 
i would say foils but since ur talking more than 2 seasons I would say go wood core like The line prophet 80 or chronic,chronic wide...ya ahhhh let me think...the head mojo 90 would not be bad p.s one ski is black and the other is red! Volkl karmas for a stiff ski the trouble makers or big troubles would not be bad either
 
im 14 weigh 120lbs and am 5'4 and ride my skis around 170 (I like them head height cause they feel more stable) so for u the size could range...wate a sec u want growing room! ya go 170 to around 175
