how old are you, what's your skill/experience level, do you like softer or stiffer skis?

without those being answered i'd say TW. that's a premium ski from them and is only $100 more than the honey badger which is something of a beginner/intermediate ski

I personally would not get honey badgers because I remember seeing a comment on NS saying they looked like a cheap CSGO skin if you know what that is

If you ski even slightly aggressive then get the TWPs cuz those honey badgers fall apart so quick

I’m 16 I like more of a flexible ski for butter and such and I want to expand on my flips, I was leaning more towards the pros but I wasn’t sure what size I’m 5 11

The badgers will be more flexible but everything else says TW for you-- being 16 and 5'11", doing flips. I'd say get the TW in 178 and know you have a top shelf park ski and you won't be wishing you held back just that little bit, I don't think it's worth $100 less cost (unless you're really limited budget wise) to get the HB especially since you're apparently a good park skier already

If you're still on the fence tell us what your last ski was (and what size) and what you liked and didnt like about it

I've been riding my honey badgers for 3 seasons now and they have held up great. They are super soft though. I can manage it when going fast but they are far from ideal. I like them for low speed butters and pvc hike sessions. Go with the TW's if you want a more stable ski.
