Now I'm looking for a park ski that will also be fun on the mountain in all conditions, a twin tip as usual park ski's.

If you guys could help me out i would be really appreciative of it,

How much do you want to spend?

As its coming to the end of the season, there are some great bargins on ebay.
Best suggestion would be get to a snowdome on one of their freestyle nights and demo a load of different ones.

I ski my Armada ARVs in all conditions.. what do you like to ski? Do you like to ski fast? Aggressively? How important is park performance?

Well, im a begging in a park but i really want to pursue this and improve; however i do love to ski on the slopes and pow. For the price range im hoping it to be around 200-400 possibly including binds if any one finds a good deal.

And as for the snowdome, isnt there one in Milton Keynes?

Yes there is one there, give them a ring and find out which nights they have the jumps out.

Scott Punishers! Awesome ski, and you should be able to find a good deal on them. Ski price should be less than $300 USD if you don't mind last years model, and you can pick up some Salomon Z12 Ti bindings for less than $200 US. Incredible ski! Right now I am using it for everything. Moguls, park, and our "lovely" spring conditions. :)

Dshenberger much as I love my Scott Punishers, they do have a reputation for being a bit heavy for park use, so I can't agree with your recommendation :D

Of course GummyBear may be a fit strong skier, though he's quite light.
