I am looking for a new park ski that can still shred everything else. Rocker camber profile and semi wide. Playful but still stable and not 7000 dollars. I am light (125 pounds) so i dont want something too heavy or stiff. I was looking at the last years atomic blog but i want to hear from people and their experiences with skis. Help me out

Quite a bit of park and less all mountain. But i dont want a park specific ski unless it is fun and playful and wide.

That's exactly what a park ski is, unless you get a jump ski like the Walls.

I haven't seen the kartels in person (yet), but I have seen FR's and a pair of their pow skis (forgot which one) and taking into consideration that the owners of ON3P say that their skis are overall on the stiffer side, you might want a softer ski than an ON3P for your size, then when you are done growing, or you are atleast bigger, you can get, and enjoy the ON3P's more.

don't llet me stop you from buying a good ski though, just a thought since they aren't cheap skis.
