189 hellbents or the ep pros? I currently ride the 188 armada jjs from a couple years ago. I ride alot of backcountry, but alot of regular days at the resorts too. I ride park the least, and just want a ski i can mess around and have fun whatever I am riding. Whichever ski I buy I will ride most days this winter.

I highly Recommend the prophet's if you do not ski much park. They are sick and bombproof.

Are you going to be skinning on your new skis in the backcountry, or just hiking, etc... Because it kind of depends if you are using skins, I'll assume you're not. Have you looked at this years JJ? Steller all around ski, you should put some consideration into that. But EP pros are gonna be way softer than hellbents, both do alright on the hardpack, and survive the park. I'd say the main difference, is that the EP is way more forgiving, and playful, and the Hellbent is stiffer and can charge harder. I'm almost positive the EP pros are lighter than Hellbents just for reference. Hope that helps a little.
