Well, the Walls are a stiffer, symetric and park specific ski, while the ArV's are a very soft, traditional sidecut all mtn specific ski.

You are looking at two very opposite skis. What do you ski, where do you ski, how heavy are you, and how aggressive are you?

If you are going on a heli trip, get the walls for park and...
1) Get a real pair of powder skis (Rossi Steeze, Line Prophet 110 or 130, Gotama, K2 Pontoon, etc...). I would assume money isn't an issue (heli aint cheap) and fatter skis than the ARV will work much better.
or
2) Just demo real powder skis from the heli operation. I think most of them have a fleet of skis for customers to use.
