Im just looking for a new pair of skis for next season. Looking for a buttery playful ski but still durable. Kind of interested in the thall's or the arv's what are your thoughts?

If it's only for park, then I would go with the thalls, it's a bit more narrow and park specific than arv.
But if you want to be able to take it through other terrain as well the arv is great!
In terms of flex, they are pretty much similar.

Faction Kennedy's works nicely, but I've heard the Silas is a great ski

If you are into soft playful skis, the 2013 punx are amazing, and they are super light. Next years will be stiffer and have some rocker, but they are coming out with a new jib ski called the infamous, so you should check that out too. Ive had no issues with atomic  durability for an entire season of riding.

Defiantly the punx. They are super soft/buttery and playful. However a downside is that this year's model was not as durable as people expected.

I'd go with ARV, Halo,Thall, or Moment Jibs...
