I live in colorado and ski the park probably 50%-60% of the time. I have a powder ski for this year but I am looking for a park ski. I want a good park ski but a little bit of all-mountain would be nice. I'm considering the Fujative's, STL's, or AR5's. Which do you think would be best or are there any other suggestions?

 
AR5's aare the best allmountain ski out of the ones you listed, so those would be best for allmountain and park.

Ya my friend had the AR5's last year and he liked them a lot. Those are what i would buy if i wanted more of an all-mountain ski, but i think i might want something a little more for and park and less for all-mountain. I still am considering the AR5's though.

 
it depends what sort of ski you like. If i was you i would get a soft ski like a fujative as they still ski ok for all mtn but are way better in park.

go with the T-Halls instead of the AR5's, they have the same dimensions, but the T-Hall is just more of a park ski as it has the rounded edges and different butter zones than the AR5's. As for the other skis they would also be very good choices

 
Ya I think the two skis I'm really stuck between are the Fujative's and STL's. They both seem like really good park skis but still do well out of the park.

 
invaders, But I live in wisconsin and all we have is rails.

Ya i'm not so focused on all-mountain though. A ski that does ok for all-mountain is all i need. i'm mainly looking for a park ski. the invaders or T-Halls are too park centered for me though.

 
the fujatives and STL are just as park centred as the invaders and T-Halls. They are all good skis it doesnt really matter what you get,

fujis or ar5s are the way to go. i love my stls, they ride park better than just about any ski i've tried, but i ski in ohio and they were still too soft outside the park. i'm also confused why the ar5s are being talked about like they are only big mountain skis...

deffinately the ar5's with the big sexy purple lady on them i love those skis

i would say either the AR5 or the Chronic Wide. both perform well in the park, and are also proven to be a good all mountain ski.

Ya the AR5's look really nice. I thought the STL's would be a little bit better out of the park than the fujative's because the STL's felt a little stiffer. I do want more of a park ski though so out of the STL, Fujative, and AR5 which would you suggest? And whoever said they hated the STL's what was wrong with them what didn't you like?

 
i would go with the fujative cause it the cheapest.

but i do like the flex of the ar5 everywhere.

and have never tried the stl. seems like it would be decent everywhere in the 183.

I didn't like the stl because outside of the park it was chattery and unsure, didn't carve well. Great for jibs, little soft for big jumps.

 
i know that both fuja;s and ar5;s rock in the park so prob between those two whichever u can find a better deal on.

I would say it is between the Fugis and Ar5's. I would personelly go with the Ar5's, since i am gettin them. But if you are looking to save money, I would go with the fugi's.

A good pickup line is

Do you eat a lot of lucky charms, cause you taste magically delicous.

 
or.... how about you ivestigate skis by yourself!!!

dont ask people "whats the best ski", because everyone has a different opinion

do some research

Yea. I said it.

Ya there's no question that the Fujative's will be cheaper, but price isn't much of an issue right now. How well do the AR5's butter. They probably don't butter as well as the Fujative's but the AR5's are probably better at higher speeds I'm guessing.

^^josh is correcto mundo... the stl's are absolutely SOOO pimpin' you should pick up some of those... while there are still some left.

and they are stiff enough so that they will rock everywhere around the mtn when u aren't in the park.

well out of what you siad you are looking at i would say that u should stay away from the stl all they do is break all the new ones to come out of the new factory have had a lot of problems we broke 17 pairs of them this summer at the watter ramps. I would look for something a little stiffer than the fujitive and stiffer than the ar5 but the ar5 is the best ski you mentioned you should look into some other companys as well
