Volkl wall vs. armada ar6

[what_if_bro]

I'm looking into getting a pair of skis to be used primarily in the park, moguls, and groomers. basically everything that isn't powder. I'm 6'0, 200 lbs, and decent in the park, I prefer jumps over rails and boxes. when I'm not in the park i want to be able to rip the groomers on icy days and have something solid in the moguls. I brought it down to these 2 skis because I can get a good deal on them. any advice?

 

[wils.]

depends what you like best the ar6 is wider and the wolkl wall is stiffer

 

[poofartpee]

well the volkls are going to suck out of the park because a centre mounted symmetrical ski lives up 2 that

so get AR6 i guess

 

[JayDope]

nah man, the volkl's are an 87 wasit and ar6's are an 85.

From what I've heard they dont suck out of the park at all

 

[Krush]

walls were an editors pick in Freeskier, and not ar6's. if that matters to you

 

[=KillaKyle=]

On the same note I believe the AR6 has a higher stoke rating which is rather interesting.....

 

[krl]

yeah i noticed that too, whats the deal?

 

[krl]

the decision between these two is killing me

 

[jason.]

get the volkl's. they may be stiffer but thats not really a bad thing. it would also be tight to support a smaller company thats on its way up

 

[-_-Johnny-_-]

Uhm, volkl a smaller company on it's way up? They've been around or ages and are huge compared to armada

 

[skierkid_92]

ar6's

 

[krl]

what? volkl is a big, established ski company

 

[brenker]

theyre both pretty close picks, and probably ski somwhat similarly. go by color and price pretty much

 

[krl]

that's what i was hoping someone would say

Volkl is one of the biggest ski companies, and with their new factory, they have the best one out of all of the companies. They make lots of other brands in their factory.
