I need a new set of skis i mostly ride rails, but i do love jumps too. I want something that will let me spin fast, and will have good rail stability. I currently ride edollos and i can front 8 and stuff, but they arent very stable.

My choices so far are the arv 96, the magnus 90, and the whippit.

Which one will be the best, also if theres another ski i should consider let me know

I had heard Edollos are actually on the more stable end of the jib/park ski spectrum..? Whipits, Allplays, Mag, CT 2.0...
 
Really solid choices on skis! You honestly can't go too far wrong with any of them... Magnus 90 and the Whipit are fairly similar skis in terms of their dimensions (90mm underfoot with similar tip/tip width) and profiles both sporting a rocker-camber-rocker for tons of versatility. Weights on the two skis are also very similar with the 176cm Magnus weighing ever so slightly more at 1,780g and the 178cm Whipit weighing 1,760g. Both have 2.5x2.5 base and edge for maximum durability.

The ARV 96 is in a little bit of a different category, getting more into the wide-freestyle ski realm occupied by the Allplay, Blend, Vandal and Poacher. These skis are all definitely on the softer end of the spectrum and lead more towards a newschool, buttery, playful style of a lot of skiers nowadays. So if you're looking for something like that, definitely check out what I just mentioned, although it seems like you are looking for more of a traditional style ski meant for big spins, quick swaps and tons of pop - which is where The Whipit excels! It blends the best materials coupled with Jason's 20+ years of innovative park ski design into one package that couldn't be more durable or fun.
