Hey im lookin for an allmountain twin tip.
I normally ski 65% Groomer and 35% Powder and I sometimes go into the park.

Which Ski would be good for me ?

Scott Punisher ?
Blizzard the One ?
Volkl Bridge ?

thank you for your help

Here you go:

I'd be buying these if I didn't have some of these, which you might also want to consider:

damn you beat me to it Tony!

The el ray is a phenominal ski-if i was buying this year i would have already bought it-i demoed it last year during the industry test in bormio and i didnt want to give it back!

ive skied the bridge too-it was softer and "floppier" - prob better in the park but had nothing on piste compared to the el ray-i was absolutely maxing them out with big wide GS style turns and they loved it-no skid, flap or shudder and tons of grip

actually if you want a pair slightly wider for the offpiste skier in you, id suggest the ARV too-less good on piste but superb fun too

Hey 4ever Ofc, welcome to J2Ski :-)

I also look for the same performance from my skis- A ski which can do a bit of everywhere.
If it was me buying new skis I'd definitely be buying a pair of Salomon Lord skis. I've been wanting a set of those for a long time and each year they've maintained their reputation as an awesome all mountain ski, winning ski of the year;

Depends on how fat you are :P

Punisher is generally considered too heavy for regular park use.
