Alrighty,

So I was wanting a playful ski that would be awesome for deep powder with a softer flex pattern then my current skis(planning on going to Japan for 3 months next year). I currently have scott p4's, volkl gotama's, line anthems and 4frnt tnks (last 2 don't affect what I buy). I was trying to decide between the Hellbent, the JJ, ARG. Any experiences between the skis?

I am 6'4, 195 pounds. And I am not easy on my skis by any stretch of the imagination (main reason for making a new thread)

If anyone is about my size and ridden any of these skis your input would be appreciated greatly. Even if you rn't the same size I would love to hear what you have to say.

The Hellbent and JJ would be great and the ARG is soo sik but no where near AS VERSITILE AS THE HELLBENT or the JJ. But the ski ur looking for with out a doubt is the Line EP Pro. like it is so perfect for what u want it was designed to be a soft playful pow shredder. And u may know a place called niseko in japan i skied it there and it was just so ideal for japan and everyone raves about it! it will float in pow like u wouldnt believe. and makes buttering and freestyle skiing in the back country so much easier.

Have a look at the Liberty Double Helix (122 underfoot) or if you can wait until the start of the season; the Genome (140 underfoot); both will be great in deep pow but light and poppy and playful and all that stuff too.

Get the double helix.  It's actually pretty versatile and you can ski it in almost any conditions except for bumps.  The bamboo is awesome and eco friendly.  Really poppy and playful, but you can rip big long turns through crud as well.  also, 3 yr warranty that can't be beat.  Liberty is really a solid core company that treats people right.
