so I want a thicker playful park ski that I can flex as my next ski and trying to come up with some ideas. Im 5 11 and 165 pounds. I mainly ski rails in the midwest, so lots of hits, and want something I can whip around but is still thicker (probably like 95+ underfoot). Durability is important as always. Basically I want a ski like the kartel or Magnus except I don't wanna spend that much money. looking to keep it under 600 dollars.

Get edollos they would be a good fit for what you’re describing. They havent changed the ski at all (just the graphic) so you could get an older model for fairly cheap too.

Take a look at the K2 poacher, it’s basically what you’re describing.

Armada ARV 96, Volkl Revolt 95 and the Nordica Soul Rider 97 might be worth looking into.

i would recommend Icelantic nomad 95s there durable, soft, and playful. even though there out of your price range it would be worth your money because they have a 3 year warranty.
