I'm looking for a pair of skis to use purely for park skiing at my nearby dry slope and indoor slope. I'd like something lightweight and durable, that'll last me a while. I've been looking at the candide 1.0, head frame wall, line chronic and armada arv 96, I'm 6ft 4in and a decent intermediate, although I'm a beginner in terms of freestyle. Any suggestions?

You could go with a pair of on3ps there very durable also 4frnts because they go up into the 180-190 range which might be good if your 6,4

Sounds good, but I live in the UK, so shipping would probably cost more than the skis!

Vishnu wets/plus .Dude I feel you being so tall but it’s such a pain finding a park ski.

this is the first year I’ve seen something bigger than 185+ in such a small width. I hope they continue this next year for sure.

also Jeff 102 offers 191 and I’m pretty sure the mango does too

For dryslope don't use nice skis unless you are happy to replace them often. The friction of the matting is not great for them. I have seen bases peel back from edges simply due to the heat. So keep an older beater pair for dryslope use. For indoor your good get whatever you like.
