I've been skiing my Line Chronic Cryptonites for about 4-5 years now. Really like them but they're starting to break down so I'm looking to re-up. East coast based, so they need to be able to handle hard pack, ice, etc. I'm kinda shitty in the park, but I like to spend time on the jumps. Occasionally in the woods, but spend about 75-80% or more of my time on groomers.
I've been looking at the new Chronics, but also have heard some great things about the Faction Somas. Can anyone recommend or review one over the other? Any other suggestions for a stiff, all mountain twin tip would be appreciated as well.
Thanks - BB

Best all-mountain twin tip? Line vs Faction?
bump
On3p Kartel is stiff allmountain twin. Also really good at park.
Line Blends are pretty tight
The SFB’s are pretty awesome in the trees and not bad on the groomers. Both the new and old versions. Are you looking for a softer ski or a stiff ski??
Definitely looking for something on the stiffer side, and stay on groomers more than the trees. I've heard good things about the J Skis Allplays too, so I'm probably between them and the Somas at this point. Anyone ever skied either of them?
You'd have a great time on the Faction 2.0s, solid all round medium width charger!
2.0's all the way, they're honestly unbelievable
All times are Eastern (-4)
