Just getting back into skiing after a 4 year break. not familiar with the new skis. Intermediate park skier, pretty legit all mountain skier. 6'1" 160 lbs. Ride 95% park at home hill (Midwest, good park, 25-50ft jumps, rails, pipe). One or two trips a year to a big mountain (where I will ski the whole hill, powder, groomed, park, trees.) Looking for a good, DURABLE, park/rail/pipe/jib ski with the best bang for the buck. Preferably under $400, cheaper the better. Last ski was a '05 public enemy. Riding Dalbello Krypton boot(full tilt hot dogger next season) and look pivot p12 bindings. Plan on buying a diff pair for all mountain, unless there's a real good 70/30 park/all mountain ski. Any ideas on a pure park ski? Maybe a 70/30 all mountain ski? Been looking at Line Mastermind/Afterbang, Armada ar6, K2 Disorderly, ect. Open to any/all brands. Any input is much appreciated. Trying to pick up new skis tomorrow!

THANKS!

the line afterbangs are a dope park ski they can also do the rest of the mountain pretty well but wont handle any pow unless your comfterable leaning back in the pow
 
ABangs would be sick, but they might be too short for you (177 is the longest), I'd say go with the AR6, I had them last year and they were one of my favorite skis, they went everywhere with ease, they kill the park, they're very durable, super fun, they can charge, and they can even take some powder (about a foot).
 
i think you should checkn out the dumonts, s4, or pipe cleaner. all super sick light park skis but are all stiff in the tail which is good for all mtn. i would also recommend walls but thet are expensive.
