Theyre all really good skis. You might be too big for foils and they might soften up on you. Ar6s are cool my bro hasem nice and flexy. I rode the addicts and didnt like them that much but youre bigger than me so you might like htem. Haha ive experienced all 3 skis but i would probably recommend foils.

Addicts are more of a park ski with center mounting and all and foils have a foam core (can be good or bad, depends on how you look at it). Don't know much about the Ar6 except that it's a good ski for all mountain and park. You do already have a good all mountain ski for carving and whatnot so choose a ski that will be good in park and good for skiing switch. I'd probably go with the AR6 because it's good for everything, I've also heard Volkl Karmas are great for everything.

I dont think that he would be able to get a pair of those ones. He will probably have to wait untill next year to get the addicts.

When you are not in the park, where are you? That is, do you ski the whole mountain, groomers, pow, or what? Almost any twin is designed with jumps in mind.  If you have money, the Karma can ski the whole mountain, its a bit stiffer and wider, if your cheaper the PE is a similar, cheaper ski. The AR6 would be my choice out of the ones you listed. Unless you spend any time in pow the AR6 will never hold you back.

Foils...if your just starting to ride the park these are the skis you want. They are light, and have they crazy turning radius so you can still rock the whole hill. They aren't the softest ski, or the poppyest ski......but if your just getting into the game they are perfect.

if you're coming from the crossmax v12, it might be easier to switch to something like the arv, or if u want something stiffer: karma, but from that list i'd say Foil, so versatile

for shure dont go with the foils because you way to much and they are going to soft after you ride them a couple times

Crossmax for groomers
A park bump and pow ski eh. That's a lot to ask for. Karmas maybe, I don't really know what makes a good bump ski though.
