Liberty had a bad rep from back in the day, but they got their shit together and started producing some legit skis. I have the KGB's from two years ago and i absolutely love them, so poppy and light. They are super eco-friendly, they have some of the best customer service in the biz and make some tight looking skis. If you want a full all around ski go with the haz-mat's, more park specific i'd go with the larosse pro's. and the helix's got some bitchin ratings from powder magazine as a great pow pow ski. so there ya go.
