the fact that you just said that makes me sad. you might as well have told him what size, what bindings, and where to mount them at what din.
we need more information in order to give you ANY information at all.... how much do you weigh? how tall? what do you like to do in the park? how aggressive are you? what other skis have you skied and what did you think about them?
after those are answered we might be able to give you a reasonable answer.

Alright dude, I am going to help you out, when making a thread like this, please tell us, your height weight, where you ski, what you usually do in the park (ie mostly rails, jumps...). Also included, what type of skier you are.... I don't think I forgot anything.

make sure the person selling skis to you knows what they're talking about though. When I first got in to freestyle, I was told to buy invaders w/ salo s610 bindings.... IM 6'2 220lbs

i dont know what kind of skier you are, but i would say the line invaders if you are going all park but you will have trouble skiing anything else cause they're so flexy. Plus they're cheap.

I suggest line invaders. You're a relatively skinny dude, almost the same weight as me but 2 inches taller. The invaders are a soft ski, 100% symmetrical, and totally park-oriented. They're super cheap too, and Line has really boosted up their quality of skis in the past couple years.

Word, I just got them back on warranty. They are sick. Not to mention that Head has pretty damn good service. My 08's were delamming at the tip and they replaced them with next years.

id look at something somewhat soft, 140 lbs is a bit light for something like a volkl wall of a fischer addict or armada ar6, so maybe like a line invader, k2 fujative/silencer..etc
