What are good directional twin tip skis?

Seems like most twin tip skis now are fully symmetrical in sidecut and flex patterns, but are there any good asymmetrical (directional) twin tips out there?

I'm looking for a 90-100mm width ski not specifically as a park ski but just for busting around.

Faction Prodigy series are pretty much what you're looking for

Those look nice although I've read some bad things about the Prodigy 2.0, it doesn't charge downhill very well. The 1.0 at 90mm waist looks very usable though?

Also Armada ARV 96Ti seems in this category?

Yeah the 3.0 and 4.0 are better for charging, the 1 and 2.0 are used as park skis by their team. The 96ti is definitely in the category also

If you aren’t afraid of going a little bigger I would suggest 4FRNT Devastators. They fucking charge but still hold their own in the park.

3.0 is sold out everywhere for the season unfortunately. The 1.0 looks pretty fun

I'll check them out, I think the Vandal might be more for me at 98mm and a bit lighter, the Devastator design is sick though!

Have to decide here

Faction Prodigy 1.0
4FRNT Vandal
J Skis Allplay

Gotta say the J's have a sick graphic and so do the Vandals. Decisions
