Salomon suspect: super heavy and not durable in the slightest. Do not recommend.

Volkl walls: lightweight and these things are tanks. All my comp jock friends refuse to use anything else.

4frnt click: The little kid version of the Switchblade. Just get switchblades.

Skiing style, ability level, height, weight, jumps rails, allmtn too?, where you ski.
All this will help everyone give you a better reccomendation.

I go hard on rails more than jumps, I'm expert/advanced, my height is 5'11", and my weight is 130 pounds, and I ski the Midwest baby

I have the 12/13 Walls and they've held up fine. Take a beating and no damage except topsheet chipping. I think the '16 graphic looks sick too
