Ok so im in the market for skis and bindings so let me give u my rundown....

-I ski the NORTH EAST

-I am a pretty agressive skier so type III

-I am about 6'1" at about 155lbs

-I ski 30% trees 40% groomers and hard pack 20%park(i want to get into park more) and 10%other

-My price range with skis and bindings together is absoluotly max $500

I have been looking at the

-Armada El Ray

-Atomic Panic

-Line Mastermind

-Dynaster 6th Sense

-K2 Sight

-Rossignol Sprayer

-Volkl Ledge

-Solomon Threat

...So please give me feedback on those and what sizes to get. I really like the all mountain rocker in the panics i think thats perfect for what i want. Also shoot some other ideas at me. Thanks.

And in the bindings department

-Marker Squire

-Marker Griffon

-(I needs other suggestions cus i dont want to spand the money on the griffons so can u give me ideas more in the Squire price range)

Thanks alot guys i really apreciate it!
 
Definitely check out the volkl ledges or bridges , the lines are nice I'd also say check out the k2 domains or kung fujas. Go for about 175-181 for length. For the dynastar 6th sense there are a couple variations. I use the superpipes myself but am looking on purchasing the line blends. I'm assuming you only want a 1 ski quiver so look for a good all mountain ski. I prefer volkl over all the selections but it's personal preference. Sorry I can't help with the bindings, but go into your local ski shop and ask all the questions you need, they should be the most knowledgable.

P.S. when you are in the ski shop never say you are planning to buy or else you are bombarded with the most expensive stuff and they just want to make the sale. Always say you are "just looking, but have some questions" then ask away and always try to get comparisons. I know this helped me a lot when I was looking at my first set of skis
 
Armada AR7s. I am almost the exact same type of skier as you and i also ski the northeast. I can not begin to tell you how much i love them!
