Hey, I was wondering what kind of skis would be the best for my kind of skiing, I'm 5'6­­" and 125 pounds. I ONLY ski in the parc so I'm looking for parc only skis. I had some 2007 4frnt stl but i tought they were quite heavy. So what ski is the best for the parc, line? atomic? liberty? etc. So mainly i'm looking for some really light skis with good pop thanks for the help!

Well, even though they are cheap, Invaders seem to be everything you're looking for.  You're not a big guy, so you shouldn't be washing out a ton, and they're light, fun, poppy, and soft.  Reinforced edges make for extra strength when grinding rails.

I think this year's are more durable, but overall they're the same ski, different topsheet.

Why are you so arrogant? This website being based in Montreal, which is in Quebec, a lot of skiers (like myself) are french, so spelling mistakes happen a lot, so keep your spelling police comments to yourself, you definitely should.
