Specs:
Height:6ft1
Weight:190
Previous skis: EP Octoland Anthems 171
Skiing: 10 All-Mountain/ 90 Park
Park= 60 rails/40 jumps (max 40-50ft)

So im looking into the HHP, Lecompte, Firstblood and the MIP and I was wondering which would be better suiting for me and my specs and in which size? Currently im leaning towards the MIP.
Im also open to other ski ideas as well!

+k for help/Input
-k for hate/THERE ARE 1000 OF THESE TREADS.

first bloods, you are bigger and you will get a lot more pop out of the bloods. they have more versatility across the mountain as well

I have heard great things about the le comte so I would go with those, both are great options though!

if you could wait till next year, cause 9 has some sick sets of park sticks comin out, they have longer lengths in the 180+ range so us bigger guys can shred some 9th, they also have the extra thick on all of their park skis next year, and they even have a symmetrical park ski, and a park ski with early rise in the tips and tails, you check out the catalog in the 2011/12 gear thread
