Alright so i'll be getting a new pair of skis for this upcoming season. I'm 5'5 125lbs. I ski 75% park and 25% tree skiing/ groomers. In the park i'll be doing 60% rails and 40% jumps. I'm a little hesitant about the filthy riches because of how they're rockered and i've never ridden rockered skis before. Also the da'nollies are a little more in my budget.

i haven't ever ridden either ski, but i've heard awesome things about the filthy riches. you shouldn't be wary about rocker, if anything it will make skiing park more fun.

this is your 3rd "which ski thread" in 5 days. do some research, google and search bar. then come ask for some advice. instead of jumping on gear talk so often

taste yourself.

I've already done my research. This thread is purely to get your opinion of which ski because I can't decide.

I just posted in your other thread but this guy has it on the $$$. The skis are entirely different. If you're content on picking one of the two..........................................................
Do you want a ski with rocker or camber? If you want rocker, pick the on3ps. If you want camber, get the iceatlantics.

I know they're completely different because one is rocker and one is camber. I've never ridden rockered skis before also. Since this is my 2nd year in the park would rockered skis make it like more fun and help me advance faster than traditional cambered skis?

Filthy Riches are such sick skis but they're pretty well a dedicated park ski and won't rail the groomers very well. I skied a pair for 2 seasons though so if your looking for durability in the park this is the way to go. Check out the Armada El Reys and AR7s though if your looking for something that will let you explore the whole mountain but still rip the park

That's just the way she goes. Sometimes she goes, sometimes she doesn't go. Today she didn't go, and that's just the way she goes.
