Alright guys i've got a question. I'm looking for a good ski for next season that looks dope.

I shred park most of the time but hit up pow on good pow days. I was looking at the disorderlies. Jibs are my fav thing to do but ill hit jumps aswell. I was wonderin if the disorderlies would be a good choice. If so should i go with the 2009 or 2010's. I can get the 09s for like 180 here: http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/K2-Disorderly-Alpine-Ski/K2S0549M.html?CMP_ID=PD_GOO001&CP=Google&CMP=KNC-Google&mv_pc=r101&gcid=S2000x135&keyword=&s_kwcid=disorderly%20ski|3475580201

the 2010's are like $360. Any ideas on what would ski the best in park primarily jibs?

disorderyls are a park specific ski so they are made for rails. i had them last year and they were my favorite ski i ever had. they are the perfect stiffness that's good for rails and medium sized jumps. they have a decently wide waist so they are ok on softer snow. Disorderlys are also extremely durable (made by k2) because they were made to get beat up on rails and in the park. i liked them so much that i ordered a size bigger (169) for this season. after last season of only doing rails and jumps they held up fine. The only thing that got scratched was the top sheet. There was no core or sidewall damage. Thanks to k2s great construction i could ski my ski that i had last year, this year and it would be like a new ski, I just grew so i had to go a size bigger. Don't listen to the other people who never even skied on disorderlys. If i had invaders last season they would be broken by now in some way. And for the 09 or 2010 i would get the 09 (that's what i had both seasons and for the upcoming). K2 definitely made a good ski that's poppy, lively, not to stiff, and amazing for park, and extremely durable, and comes with a vertical sidewall. Hope this helped

i would get surfaces, they're great skis that do whatever you want them to.

Between the disorderlys and the afterbangs what do you guys think would be better, biased aside.

I love jibs but also hit medium sized jumps and on pow days hit up pow and do some backcountry jumps but im in the park more often.
