I'm 5 foot 95 pounds and don't know what ski to get for my all-mountain/park ski. The biggest ski I will consider is a 165. Also I ski at Stevens Pass and Baker and are a level 3 skier. I already have the sir Francis bacon for powder so this ski I won't take into over a inch of fresh. The only company I won't consider is salomon.
 
AR6's are super durable. I rode mine 59 days last season hitting rails and jumps everyday (midwest.. no powder) and only got like 2 edge cracks. It comes in a 166.
 
why? if your not gonna take it in over an inch of snow, theres really no reason to, unless it's symmetrical, but you wouldnt be looking for a symmetrical ski for all mountain in the first place
 
then your kinda fucked, i cant name a single ski i would recommend under 165 with early rise or rocker
 
I figured because I searched and couldn't find anything. This is probaly to small of a ski what about 2011 atomic benchetler jr. They are 153 which I think is to small but are 90 at the waist with pop rocker. I have also considered the line cryponites
 
153 is way to small for something with rocker(even pop rocker). stick with a traditional shape and side cut ski like ar7s for an all mountain/park ski, its what they were designed for, and at your hight probably the best choice(this is coming from someone who owned ar6s for 2 years and loved them to death and rides at stevens)
 
yeah if you want early rise in your size, your stuck with k2
and they don't even have that much but it is a decent amount. however they don't
 
If u want early rise the armada alpha 1 and halo are good also if the ski is a little bit bigger than what you said (170) then the early rise would mean that you have less ski on the snow so just the same as a 165 ski without early rise
 
smallest afterbang. but dont spend alot of money on these your probably still growing at that size and your breakout year is still well down the road
