Halo or Thall

Hi everyone (I've searched by the way)

So I need a new park ski. I'm just looking for your views on the skis below and this is currently what I know:
- Halo (jib rocker, recommended back from center mounting due to early rise in the tip)
- Thall (jib ski, pretty flexy and buttery).

Im 5'10, around 150pounds, will be pushing my park ability this year so I want a ski that will be sick on rails, poppy off jumps and soft and flexy enough to butter around in and out of the park.The Thall is softer apparently but does the rocker in the Halo make up for that?
+k for replies, thanks.

good choices but the halos would be better on jumps for they are slighty (very slightly) stiffer than the thalls, the halos are cheaper (again slightly) and since its rocker technology is the shit do yeah either one is good, if you want to mount your skis centered then get thalls, but the halos will ride weird since the elf shoe shape will ride better at the recommended mount

Thanks a lot.. +k. Still not convinced either way though. It's kinda annoying since I really want a buttery flexy jib focused ski (thall) but I also want to try out the park rocker for the first time to see if that would be better than the thall for butters, pop etc.

More views would be appreciated.
