I've pretty well convinced my bud to take up skiing and let me show him the ropes.

Need some advice on a beginner park ski for him.

He's 5'11", 130 pounds. He's already got some SPKs from a couple of years ago.

...Probably going to get some off kijiji anyways

I started park on the LINE Chronics in 2012. I've heard that the 2015 Chronics are pretty good skis.

I have the 2015 Chronics and I love them. Pretty solid for all around the mountain and in the park. But its since he is a beginner, its probably gonna be a while before he ripping laps in the park most likely

I'd recommend any ski that he can afford, like a beginner pricepoint ski. Then when he really sticks with it or whatever he can get a good ski.

line mastermind might be good, they are a beginner oriented park/all mountain ski at a decent price
