I'm heading to whistler this summer and I'm either going to run Al Dente's or Ar7's... AR7's are a lot better for jumping but not sure how soft the takeoffs will be.

Suggestions below that don't involve Rick Astley pls
 
I prefer having wider skis in camp because it let's me float better in the slush. PS I have dentes and they are great in those conditions, I'd take them.
 
going to momentum..

And I'm guessing they salt and rake the takeoffs a lot? or do they let them deteriorate

Jumps are salted and well maintained, but that being said the snow still gets soft.

It all come down to what kind of ski you prefer and what kind of skiing you will be doing. Both will be fine. If you want to hit the bigger jumps then AR7s if you think it will be jibbing then Al Dentes.
 
honestly everyone could voice their opinions on which skis they want you to bring but in the end you should bring the skis that you are more comfortable with. You arent going to summer camp for that long so bring the pair that you are more likely to improve on
 
I personally say just bring park skis. Most of what you'll be doing there will be rails/jumps and the Al Dentes will be fine for everything.

The diggers salt the shit out of the takeoffs, so they're very firm - but you can still get an edge into it even if you have rail damage. The landings are pretty sloppy, but it doesn't take long to adjust.
