Before the snow starts flying I was considering in investing in a new pair while the prices are low. I currently ride 179 K2 Kung Fujas, but are more af a early/late season ski for me. I was looking for something brand new and insanely versatile. I'm 6'3'' 175lbs and i ski 70/30 all mountain to park. Im not much of a rail guy, but I occasionally hit boxes. Jumps are my main focus in the park.

So basically, what I'm looking for is a ski that:

- Carves well

-floats in pow pow

- is durable enough to withstand decent size jumps and hold up on EC ice. Pop on jumps is also a factor.

Is there such a ski? Thanks NS
 
you mentioned powder and east coast ice, which means you're only talking about a foot or 2 of powder, right? That being said, and you want a good jump ski that carves well, so you're looking at a stiff ski with a wide waist. I'd say look into the Line Chronic Cryptonite or Surface Watch Life, or even the Armada AR6 - might be a little skinny, but they hold their own in the shin high stuff.
 
didnt see the EC bit ye maybe Lizzies and blends to wide....Chronic Cryptonites or even Anthems would be alrite! well noticed bro!
 
Line Elizabeth's are a good choice because they are nice and wide underfoot for pow, stable enough for jumps and fun on rail you cant lose haha
