Hey newschoolers. So it's been a little while since i've been looking to buy anything new (or been on newschoolers for that matter) and am not really up to date with all the gear. Thus I have come to you for help!

I am 5'11, and weigh about 152 pounds. Looking for pure park ski.

My last skis were the 171 2010 Ar7's. Loved them. Lasted me 2 full seasons before a few edge cracks started showing up. Interested in trying something different though.

So anyway from looking around i think i've whittled down to 4 skis. which would YOU choose??

Volkl Wall

Atomic Punx

Armada Halos/Alpha

Rossi Scratch

Does anyone have input on moving from a non symettrical ski like the Ar7's to a true symmetrical ski like the wall or punx?? Just curious.

Also how do you guys like the new halos for park?

 
You likely won't notice too much difference moving to a symmetrical ski, unless you're doing alot of hard switch skiing.

I like the halos. Skied em a few times, and i liked them. But to throw another ski your way, i skied on Nordica Ace of Spades last season, and reallllllly enjoyed them. Great park ski. Got a good amount of stiffness/flexibility, and handles really well. Just something to consider.
 
It depends on you preferences, would you rather have a softer or stiff ski? Do you spend more time on jumps or rails? Do you like cruising on groomers?
