The masterminds and the press are a lot the same...personally I would go with the mastermind because line has worked well for me and I like the design a lot more.

mastermind are quite slow and there bases are very bad buut they are good for beginners. k2 press is quite faster and has a jib rocker so is really playful to mess around with. quite fun skis. go with k2 press!
