Skiers have a new identity. The AR6 is here for them; the park skiers who ride the entire mountain. We addressed park features first with weight, durability and flex. The AR6 starts with our lightweight, all-wood AR Core 1 and heat-treated 2.5 Impact Edge. We incorporated a variable flex profile to enhance the performance of its solid overall flex, while the Carbon Fiber Stringers in the tail of the ski create pop and torsional stiffness. As one of the firmest park skis out there, you’ll be able to hold an edge carving off the lip or in variable snow on the steeps. Renowned artist Mad Steez put his finishing touch on this ultimate all-mountain ski for the park rider."

Written by Ski Review Guest on 2008-03-23 15:32:22
I am a young kid who like to ski park. I hit both jumps and jibs. I need a soft ski that is soft enough for my size 5'2 95lb. I ski PA so not much powder. I am not all park though, so i want a ski that is atleast ok at holding a edge and stuff. | Written by Ski Review Guest on 2008-04-06 21:16:29

I have a friend who just got these and they are really park. they are soft and buttery which is good for park but not so much for crud and icy stuff. if you want park and all mountain you could maybe try the public enemy | ar6s . t halls or the line invader all 2

does anyone know which of these skis is best for spinning and rails. and feels good when they're centermounted? I had the line invaders last year and they were great in. the park but for huge jumps they're weren't so good my old ar6s were way better for big spins. anybody help? | Invaders for Jumps

If you are going for big kickers, the invader is a no-no. It is a great ski for jibbing and urban type skiing, but if you are getting into big jumps, its not the ski for you. If you want to keep most of the jibbing characteristics of the Invader, but want to do more jumps, the Line Anthem is a good way to go. It has the same butter zone as the Invader but is more stable on big jumps. | hi

HI im looking for a ski that is great in the park but also works well on the black diamonds and other normal runs. I heard the Ar6's are good but im looking for a secon opinion. Anyone know of a ski like that? | re: Invaders for jumps

Agreed on the use of Anthems over Invaders, but Anthems are soft enough to not hold you if you land leaning a little too far back, or (if landing switch) too far forward. The Line Chronics were literally made to keep this from happening. | ar6's are sick

they do it all, park, pipe, pow, grommers. top sheets scratch kinda easy but it's a great ski on jumps and jibs but still have a good egde hold. good for hits of all sizes. | AR6
