So I want some new twin tips for skiing 60% rails and 40% jumps (I don't ski very much all mountain maybe 5% of my time). I would like these skis to match my full tilt drop kicks so I would like to find some green or yellow skis. I definitely want a SUPER light weight ski with TONS of pop. I'll give karma to helpful answers. And - karma for unhelpful answers.

My buddy rides park in him, they ride like a big ski but feel light as a feather. PM Broto and he will tell you about them

Armada T-Halls are green/yellow/red, no idea how they ski though, Liberty LTEs are green/turquoise ish, but never skied them either. Rossignol Scratch Opens are yellow on the tips/tails and black/white on the rest. Honestly though, color should probably not be your biggest priority for buying skis.
If you can cut some vinyl stickers they actually work pretty well as topsheets if you cover your entire top sheet with them and then you can have what ever color you want and what ever ski you want!

How about the Volkl Wall or Ace of Spades?
I know these skis are very similar, I rode the AoS last season. These popped like you wouldn't believe, I felt like I could ollie over ANYTHING. Super quick, responsive and light ski. From my understanding, the Wall's are a little bit stiffer and slightly geared more towards jumps than the AoS though.
I know they can be a stretch with what you're looking for in terms of color, but you can always dye your boots/change out the tongues. These skis are great, I would definitely recommend at least a bit of consideration

2 things:
1. Does matching the color really matter more than matching the style of your skiing?
