6ft 2, 175 I'm looking to get an all mountain ski that can  go from the trees to the park and do decently on groomers. I was thinking about getting blends but when I went on the porters website I saw a pair of bacons for a good price. I feel like the bacons would be more versatile than the blends. would they do ok on the ice coast?

yeah bacons would survive on the east coast. but they are softer than many skis on the market. check out the cryptonite maybe, its on the fatter side, good stiff and solid in the park.

One ski Armada AR6. super durable, not symmetrical so better for all mountain, stiffer than any line afterbang noodle junk, and can take you anywhere.

thanks. Anyone know how stiff the blend is? I'll spend most of my time out of the park and on real shitty days I have my old park skis to use. So I'm looking for a more all mountain specific twin then a park ski that can do ok all mountain. The J-mos are interesting though.
