Hey NS,
So ive had rossi ghettos for the last few years and they have been through alot (aka falling out my friends roof rack and getting ran over a ton). And this summer ive decided its about time to get some new skis. Now I am a big guy, 6'2" about 175lbs. My type of riding for these skis will be pretty much 50% park and 50% BC/Pow so trying to find an all around great ski s kinda tough. Money isnt too much of a trouble since I have been saving up all summer. So NS If I am looking for something great all around with a bit of flexibility and poppyness what would be the best ski?
+kkarma for help
 
181 or 186 liberty morphic i think 126-94-118 pretty light pretty nice laps park well but can also be a go to ski for your lines and whatnot designed for 50 50 just like you.

189 Kung Fujas may seem long mayby not has a bit of rocker which makes it ski shorter. Rocker is the illest though in all skis i heavily suggest it. Great ski and K2 is the best might be mainstream but they take care of you easy to get your stuff warantied.

Rossingnol S3 ski has an interesting idea bit of tip/tail rocker so in soft snow skis like the 128/98/118 its regular shape but on hard snow is actually a symetrical 110 98 110 to ski like a true twin tip and dominate the park. check out the 186. Its probably the one i would most heavily suggest
 
i am a little bit bigger than you and am looking for a similar ski. i am looking at the arv, kung fujas, and on3p jeronimo. all in the longest sizes.
 
If you plan on keeping them for a long time again I think 9 makes a pretty strong ski. Really thick edges and good sidewalls. If you wanted to wait another year theyre working on this fancy new edge technology crap. from what ive heard about it so far it seems like its an obvious solution to edge problems that had been overlooked for some reason.

And this is the first time I've said this (mostly because of the huge pressure to buy them) but ON3P sounds like they make an amasing ski. If I ever get the chance to demo them I;ll probably end up owning a pair.
 
EP Pros are a terrible idea. And the Bacons might be alright, but in my opinion, there are definitely better choices for what you're looking for. Not saying the Bacons and EP Pros are bad skis though.
 
Never ridden the MSP's but I have TNKs and love them to death. Maybe its because its my first sidewall construction ski but I love them so much. They're pretty poppy and the bases are really fast. Havent had any major edge issues yet. Also babe ruth on a ski?!? I hate baseball but its still sick. haha. Core center isnt true center on them though so if you want them at true center but dont wanna lose any performance outside the park you might wanna look into something else.
