Taller park skis pref. w. rocker

I ripped the edge out of my FR's and I now need some new skis. The 186 FR's are hands down the most fun ski I've skied, but they were really really expensive with customs and shipping, so even tho I would like to order a new pair I'm not going to.

I got a pair of pow skis so I'm only looking for a park ski. I would say I go 65% rails, 35% jumps.

My biggest problem is that I want my skis around 185, and the amount of park skis in that length is awful. I had a pair of 182 AR7s that I felt were on the short side. However I'm really satisfied with the 4cm taller FR's..

You could say that I want a pair of FR's but for cheap. I really like the symmetrical cut and rocker, and ofc the length. I'm however open for suggestions!

Can you guys help me out finding some nice sticks?
 
Just snagged a set of 186 filthy riches, and they come to the top if my head I am 6'3 def one of the longer park skis I have seen, with nice rocker in the tip and tail and fully Semetrical they r pretty sweet

Like I said, they are way to expensive with customs.

Can anyone recommend me a nice tall and playful park ski?
 
Doubt he'd be able to get icelantics and cheaper. If you're in sweden why not go for a more euro brand like atomic or head? A lot of peopel like the Head Caddy's. I've used punx and liked those. Elan also has some interesting bases on their park skis. The FR's are really rockered though, not that many park skis with rocker like that.
 
oh completely spaced on where you lived.. I thought it was canada. Yea maybe check out some Amplids that might be what you are looking for, just dont know if they are the correct size
 
Sorry to hear about the skis, and I wish we could support a shop out in Sweden - someday soon I hope.

Other long park skis - most brands that make anything in that range are indy since few large companies can support small specialized production runs for a length that few will buy, but check out:

Armada Al Dente - 188cm, rockered but much softer

Salomon Remix - They had a 186cm last year, might be able to find one over there cheap. Slightly rockered.

Besides that... I know there are a few Euro indies or custom shops that might be able to get you what you want for cheaper, but slim pickings indeed. Best of luck in your search!

Thanks a ton for the answers!

I've never heard of the Remix but found a site that sell em' for cheap, waiting for an answer on a price without bindings.
