I have made a lot of threads about choosing a ski thats right for me but i just recently found skis fairly cheap that seem to be very hard to choose from. First of all, i am wanting to get into park as i havent really even stepped foot into the park. I am 6'2 and 215 lbs. I am very good on groomers, and i can even ride switch and make turns pretty easily. Here are the skis i can choose from:

K2 Recoil 179 for 340 dollars.

K2 Domain 179 for 360 dollars.

Armada Ar7 181 for 375 dollars.

Armada Halo 182 for 393 dollars.

Also, i currently ride a 169 k2 extreme from a couple years ago, and i deffinately wanted something longer. I would still use the ski i have now, but for crappy days maybe, or maybe when im doing no park at all, but i should be able to get around fine on these skis on the groomers. +++++k for any help on making a decision. Thanks!

 
I would get it but i cant find it in my size at a good price. And if the thall was a good price and my size i would get it in a heartbeat.
 
Thats what i meant. Theres no point in paying an extra 150 dollars just to get the alpha 1 in my size when instead i can choose from these skis which are all good.
 
In my opinion armada makes much higher quality skis, I. Terms of playfulness and pop. Again just my opinion but personally I'd go with the ar7
 
I have the Armada AR7 and i have to say they are the most prime park ski i have ever ridden, they are great for rails, jumps, jibs, butters, watever your innovative mind can think of, this ski will preform
 
It all depends if you want a soft or stiffer ski. Domains are definitely softer compared to these and recoils/ar7s are stiffer. I dont know much about the halos so i will leave it at that. Good luck
 
yeah man, im 5' 7" and i hav 165, maybe if you can get your hands on 175, but 181 would probably be the top notch you can go
 
dude i can get the thall in a 181 for only 380 . I literaly have no idea what to get. They are both such sick skis.
 
I would say the recoil or AR7, or even to consider something stiffer. I'm 175 lbs and 6' and I can throw my AR7s around pretty good
 
Ar7, You are a big dude, im only 130lbs and i can butter my ar7s if i put some effort into it, they are an awsome park ski and if you can get them for that that cheep i would definitly go for it, they are super light and durable, pm me if you have any questions on how they ski
