Best cheap park skis?

I recently broke a pair of line future spins and I am looking to find a pair of new skis before the season ends. (I preferably want a pair of center symetrical skis because I will mostly be skiing park because there isn’t much real terrain where I’m from) I was recently looking on the house website and came across line step ups for $250. I am on a tight budget and this seemed to fit it but I am worried if they are to outdated/heavy. Has anyone used these before? If you know of any other cheap park skis that are better quality please tell me

Pick up a pair of used skis instead. Youll have more fun skiing on something that is more recently built. Line step up isnt the best ski either. You would most likely blow up a new pair of line skis than a used pair of a more quality brand.

I have owned them for 4 years now, lots of pop, turn like race skis but a heavy swing weight, the greatest part is there is absolutely no possible way to break the things.

Either of these would work. Symmetrical skis really aren't that needed. Your body geometry is different when you ski backwards.
