Should I get the El Ray's or the AR7's?? I ski 70% park and 30% all mountain. I ski 40+ times a year and want something to last me for the next couple years if possible.

The El Rays are not more park oriented. They are great all mountain but are kinda sketchy in the parks compared to the AR7's. The AR7's are slightly lighter also. I would go with the AR7's. I have tried both all over Vail and Breck CO including parks and out of bounds. The El Rays held up great but the AR7s definitely beat them out in the parks.

Personally, I'd go with the AR7, but I ski about 10% park. If I were you, I'd go with the EL Rey as they are more park specific. They are probably a bit lighter as well.
