I obviously find the fujative for $299 but my local store is selling the 205 AR5 for $310, Which of these skis should I invest into?? the AR5 are selling out fast and the sale ends in two days. I want sick park ski. Something that spins fast and lands big airs. Also with a good underfoot for some nazt rails and shit. Which is going to be the better ski in performance, durability?

ar5s will stomp landings better no matter what...fujis will be fine if ur not too heavy. jibbing theyd pretty much be equal but fujis can butter easier. so if u like a stiffer ski to stomp landings with go with ar5s but if u like soft skis then go fujis

ar5 will be better for jumps and such as they are considerably stiffer, better as well as all mountain.
watch out though, if you do rails a lot then beware of the teethless edges. it helps prevent the ski from snapping but easier for the edge to come right out

fuji for sure. Better for jibbing,buttering,and no it doesnt wash out on big jumps. I've hit jumps on 50 feet+ on both PE and fujative and theres no difference in washing out. Both great. But if ur looking @ armada look into T-Hall instead of AR5. I know some ppl dont like soft skis but they are soooooooo much funner and better in park. plus ur light so u would probably have trouble flexing a AR5 if u want to butter properly. and there cheaper.

What size fujative do you need? I have them for cheap on my site plus we're doing an extra 10% off right now with the coupon C10Dec15 and free shipping.........but I only have the 05's in 169 right now until my new inline K2 product appears over the next few weeks.
