Troublemakers or Ar6?

yea, this years model on both.

I ski a lot of the whole mountain but I go in the park quite a bit, so i guess its like 60% all mountain 40% park.

I have head mojo 80s now and I love them, but they're getting a little small.

I want a ski that can rip on groomers but still kill it in the park, so which is it?

feel free to recommend other skis too
 
hmmmm...I like Anthems...but ur probably looking for something a bit stiffer. the AR6 is a little more all mountain friendly, just because it has a wider waist.
 
I had the same question a few weeks back and got K2 Fujatives, which Im very happy with. They have 85 waist and im 125lbs so they hold me up, are very snappy, etc.

But had I more money I would've gone with the AR6s, because they r a great ski all around and you can defs throw them around in teh park. Not to mention the sick graphics
 
I personally will never ride an Armada ski again. Although thier warranty is the best out there, I find thier skis arent very durrable for long. Ive had 2 sets, 05/06 T-Halls and 06/07 Ar6's. Both pairs delamed and the edges in the tails have come out. Its been less than a month, and its already happening on my Ar6's.

I may have gotten 2 defected pairs, but thats a long shot. Im only 160 lbs, and not a very hard rider. Skis should hold up alot longer than this.

Have you though of some Blends or Chronic's? You can get those pretty cheap now, and they are pretty stiff too.

 
i've ridden blends, not really my thing, and my best friend has chronics so they're kind of out of the question
 
Hmm, Scott P3's? Apparently they kill it all mtn, nice and poppy, and durrable too. I havent heard too much about them, but from the people who ride them they all seem to like them alot.
 
^ yeah my 05 ar5s are by far the best skis ive owned. they are durable and pretty stiff compared to the tm which I rode a couple of years ago. very nice on the groomers and stable as shit in the park. cant go wrong with armadas ar series.
 
trouble makers all the way, Im on them right now and they are hands down the best ski I have ever been on. They have tons of pop, can handle the high speeds like a ace and their durbality is the best I have ever seen, They are at the point where I ride right over gravel, dirt, concrete, snow, grass, water, etc after doing a rail and they are after almost a full year of riding starting to show some signs or wear and tear. By this im talking about the ski becoming softer, there are plently of top sheet niks but those will happen on any ski, and when I did take a big hunk out of the ski the problem didnt spread like it tends to with the armadas.
