I'm like 5"9 and pretty light (70ish kgs)but I'm on my 4th season now so I ski pretty hard and need some new park whips, I'm in Whistler for this season but will be going back to the U.K. And skiing indoors for a while after. I'm looking for a skinny ski like 85 underfoot but anything in that range is either a price point ski or a comp ski. The reason for the small width is I fucking love moguls/ bumps and my old (really old) arv 86s are delaming but are so much fun.

Do I need a skinny stiff full camber ski for obliterateing the bumps?

I've had my eye on some 2018 Salomon NFX's, any input would be very helpful.

Sorry for the crazy long post!

The prodigy 1.0 looks sick but can't find it below normal price anywhere, I'm sure I'd be happy with the new arv 86 but I just wanted to try something new. Thanks for the help though man.
