Freeride/freestyle skis

Hello.
I am looking for a new skis. I would like to have something between freeride and freestyle ski. I enjoy off-piste skiing, but I can't enjoy it too often, so I need a ski which can be used on-piste and in snowpark too. I am not really an expert for ski equipment, so I am asking you if there is a model for my needs.
I am an good intermediate skiier, 180cm (5.9feet) high and weigh 68kg (150lb).

What type of skis do you suggest for me? And which bindings would be the best?

Thanks!

Hey

Am afraid I can't help you on the what skis to buy front.

I would however say that what skis will depend on how much time you want to ski and how much you want to play in the snow park. I only say this as most of my friends who love doing both have two sets of skis as when you are in the snowpark you don't want your skis to have too much of an edge on them as when they catch on a rail it can have some "hard" consequences plus the rails don't do too many favours to your edges.

Unfortunately I can't speak from experience as the snow parks aren't my thing..... :!:

I already have skis for on-piste, so I am buying the second set of skis. I think that in park or on powder you don't need sharp edges, correct me if I am wrong. So this set of skis would be for park/powder.

I'm selling these on here if you are interested. Shameless pimp I know :D

172 with 87 underfoot. PM me if you want to buy them.

Likely to be on ebay soon.

Nice set of skis Bandit! :D

Twin tips are perfect for the snow park just a nightmare to follow if someone is skiing on piste with them as they kick up so much snow.....

Thanks Brimster. I'm sad to be selling them, but since I've had Skier Alignment done, they don't feel comfy. They absolutely rip...everything, and I'm quite fond of Rooster Tails :D

I might be interested in them. How much is delivery from UK to Slovenia (EU)?
Aren't they too long for me? 172cm to 180cm?

Syth, delivery to Slovenia is a hefty £48 using my preferred courier, which is why I'd initially said UK only.
No, they are not too long for you, really. I would have thought they would be a bit short for powder, but as you are a light skier you would get away with the length, but fine for the park, where the Punisher is good, but known as a bit heavy. If I told you that I'm 164 would it help :D
