Ok I am debating between 3 pairs of skis. The Salomon Dumont, Line Chronic, and Volkl Bridge. I want something for the park as well as groomers and some off piste like trees and up to half a foot of powder. What should I get. I heard the bridges aren't great in the park and the chronic's can't handle the speed. Idk how the dumonts handle outside the park. Any suggestions?

I definitely don't like how the Dumont handles anything, even that park, but that is just an opinion. The Bridges are pretty sick, hold speed well, but I have heard that the can break a little easier than other skis. The Chronic is a super sick ski though. They hang in the park with the best, they handle speed better than you would think, and I have a buddy who can rip pow on his. Not the deep stuff, and not with relative ease, but still can keep up to us when he wants to.
