I am considering several skis and would like some advice.I want a twin tip, I ski mostly groomers on bad snow days, 1 or 2 black on bad snow days, all mountain on powder days (but I still love groomers), I'm just getting into the park, hitting waste-high jumps, but planning to progress quite a bit still in all areas. I'm 5'7", 138 pounds.Here is what I've been considering:1.) K2 Extreme2.) Armada AR63.) Line Blend4.) Line Prophet 905.) Volkl Bridge (if price is comparable)

The ar6 will give you the best park performance, the prophet 90 the best groomer performence but a little stiff for park and the blend the best powder performence but skiswell on the groomers, My son who is the exact same size as you skis the ar6 in 171cm everywhere and rips on them, even backcountry jibbing in 2 feet of powder, i would go ar6 or blend.
