i really have no clue what skis to get. im looking for a light, poppy, not too stiff park ski.

-i ski 100% park.

-5'11, 165 lbs.

-somewhere from 172-178 (im used to a shorter ski).

-dont have a alot of money, so under $300 would be my price range.

ive been looking at 09/10 afterbangs, 10/11 suspects (could get for a decent price), and 09/10 surface nine lifes. i could really use some help, thanks.

Afterbang will give you the best bang for your buck in a park ski.

I personally would go with the afterbangs since the rest of the skis are not what you're looking for.
The suspects and the nine lifes have had durability issues this past season and the scott p3 is a very stiff park ski.
