I need some help finding a good park ski that can still shred all mountain. Lots of rocker and playful is what im looking for and not anything super expensive. I am looking at the surface odyssey because surface makes sick skis i dont care what people think or the faction candide 1.0, i have surface double times now but they are too specific for me (still love them though)

Be careful with last years 1.0's they had a durability issue they fixed this year. Those Bluehouse skis look sick

Look into last season's or the season before that models, you can get some pretty amazing prices.
I've heard a lot of good things about K2 hellbents, quite cheap

or if you really want this season's for 500$ you can get

if you want buttery and mainly park/jibbing on groomers id recommend this, good price: http://www.amazon.com/Nordica-Soul-Rider-Skis-2014/dp/B00FRGOWQU/ref=sr_1_1?s=sporting-goods&ie=UTF8&qid=1414064845&sr=1-1&keywords=soul+rider+nordica

Fischer nightsticks from last year (same as this years) for 299$ at ski depot. Such a deal for a awesome park ski.

go on eBay and look at last years skis. You should be able to find some around $300 or less. Dropping $500 on park skis is retarded.

4frnt switchblades are 350 on evo.com. Probably able to find them cheaper. 4frnt switch blades are the best ski I have ever had. I am comparing them to 2013 Volvo ledges and 2014 atomic infamous, much more durable and carve great.
