My First Skies

I am going to buy my first skies for this season and wondering if you guys could give some feedback on my skies, which i have chosen so far. I am not a new beginner and far from a pro. I can do groomers, powder, but starting park 'n pipe, så far i have managed to do a 360 on a blue jump..
The skies have to be twintip:

- Salomon Suspect
- salomon Twenty Twelve

I'm open for any other options if you mean they are better. Looking for at ski that also easily can be used in the powder and on the groomers. The skies must not be heavy, and if butters and just spinning around on the snow i easy, i would love it.

Here is a whole thread dedicated to 2010 skies. I know they are from last season, but there are some beauties in there.

Get the 2012. It seems like you are stoked on it, and the rocker it has will fare pretty well in whatever pow you encounter.

I would say go for the cryptonite. Its an awesome ski, fairly buttery.

Haha sorry about the skies thing, didn't know that English wasn't your first language. Most of the time it is some dumb kid who doesn't know how to spell.

No problem ;)

Yeah, after i heard about the Cryptonite it's pretty much "leading". Nice ski that i think i could get good use of (not sure if it is with two "f´s" in this case, before i have to hear from that...). But my budget is something like 500-600 $. I kind of new to the park, so ofcourse i will be spending time there doing to "big" kickers etc. I also got some mates that do powder and i will be attending that as well. The Groomers is probably mostly for the girls, chilling with them..

If anyone got any experience on the Cryptonite please tell your personal meaning, ofcourse same thing for the others skis. But i would really like to hear about, if they are light (positive, don't want any heavy) and if the are easy to spin around with, for example on the groomers, and just playing around.
