What ski to choose?

I have been wanting to buy the Nordica enforcer 88 for a while now, it seemed to be a great ski for doing thechnical short turns but also being a little playful. After some research and asking questions on this forum, it turns out that the enforcer 88 isn't playful afterall.

So I got a suggestion that the Blizzard rustler 9 should be a great ski for doing thechnical turns on whilst also being a playful/forgiving ski and should be better in the air than the enforcer 88.

So I started doing some research on the rustler and asking more questions and it turns out that the ski isn't either so great.

Someone even said:

"The Rustler is a very Soul 7, dad or rental-esque ski. It’s not a freestyle oriented ski and it’s not especially great on hard snow either."

And so I started doing some research on skis similar to the rustler, and I stumbled across the Nordica Soul rider 87. But the soul rider didn't have any carbon reinforced edges or any metal in the body so it wasn't a great carver.

I have also looked into the Armada ARV 96, Fischer ranger 94 fr and some other similar skis.

So is there even a ski that are great at carving, whilst also being playful/forgiving and a ski that you can take in the park?

Please write a ski that would fit my needs down below.

Thanks

The short answer is no.

The things that make skis great at carving, stiff, narrow, powerful tails, are all things that make skis less forgiving and generally less playful.

Where do you ski?

Have you looked at the blister winter buyers guide?

I ski in Sweden, mostly groomers, offpist and park.

You can’t have it all, pick a ski that will be really good at one think and mediocre at the others or you could get something like an arv 96 or a Jeffrey 96 that will somewhere in the freestyle all mountain range. Might be worth looking at the ON3P woodsman line
