Well the Blend & the Arv would both fit into the category that u r looking at very well. But these two skis r totally different beasts. The Blend is a 100mm freestyle/freeride ski & would work great for a one ski quiver for someone that is going to be skiing powder often but does not want to invest in multiple skis. With LINE is fatty base & edge technology u r also looking at a ski that is durable & also a great performer with its full maple macroblock core.

The ARV on the other hand is a 92mm ski that is going to be more oriented towards the park then powder, & has been Armadas flagship ski within this category for the past few years. It will still handle powder & crud but not as well as the Blend will.

It really comes down to how often u will be skiing park & how often u will be skiing powder. If u find yourself going into the park every so often but skiing off trail & freeriding a lot go with the LINE Blend. If u r in the park all the time & only ski out of the park on powder days go with the ARV or the LINE Anthem(Fully symmetrical park ski).

Here r a couple links for u to check out the skis more in depth.

Try looking into the Line Elizabeths. They r a mix of pow & park ski. They r really good in pow & pretty good in the park. 110mm waist with park flex. These r Eric Pollards person park ski so u know they r good. For the blend & arv they r better in the park than pow. Either way, u should know that a park/powder skis r always more difficult to ride than a specific ski.

Oh, & to the sierra crew that recommended the anthems. They r one of my personal favorites in the park & has a 93mm waist which u would think could work in powder but, they r not good in the pow at all. I've tried it in the pow & u dont float really good.
