Alright so I'm 5'8 120lbs. East coast r. Pretty mucha park rat. 70%rails 15%jumps 15%just doin some reg skiing.

I'm stumped as to what I want to get..

Amplid Antidogmas, Line Anthems, Moment Reno Jibs, or 4FRNT TNKs.

What I dislike about Amplid is that I heard they are a stiffer ski, and I want something fun to butter on, which is why Line is up there, but I'm not sure if the width of them would effect me at all. I like the Amplid graphics, but I'm not really diggin the Anthems' graphic this year. But I'm not gona buy a ski based on its topsheet design. I heard there is ABSOLUTELY NO difference as far as core makeup and that stuff between the two? Also heard awesome reviews about the Reno Jibs, and the TNKs also look sick.

Any help?

Or other Suggestions?
 
have you checked out amplid townships or moment reno rockers? townships are softer then antidogmas so they will be better on rails. and reno rockers are softer then jibs and the rocker helps with butters and EC pow
 
Out of the four you named I say either the Amplids or Moments for sure. But thats just my personal opinion.
 
moment reno rockers.

a little wider for better stability on jumps. plus anything thinner than that won't keep you up in pow.

plus moment as legit as it gets
 
I'm east coast also and i just picked up some k2 disorderlys. They seem like they're gonna slay the park.

Also check atomic punx, they look really good this year.
 
Are the Townships hard to butter on? What size should i go with and should it be center mounted if I do choose to rock those?

same question regarding Moment reno rockers
 
YO!I'm a feather like you, and I would recommend you getting the invaders because of your weight. Amplids will be hard for you to butter on....I also heard that the fischer villain pro is a great ski for lighter skiers like you. They are fully symmetrical and I heard that they are a very buttery ski. They are even in the top skis in the freeskier buyer's guide.
have fun picking your skis
 
def atomic punx. symmetrical, suuuuuper soft, vertical sidewall, wood core, tons of pop. theyd be absolutely perfect for you.

anthems arent too wide, but arent gonna be as technical, reno rockers are softer, but rockered. if u want that feeling in the park, perfect, really easy to butter on and all, but again, wider. havent felt the amplids, so im not too sure on them, but i have heard a lot of good things, and they do have a dope graphic.
