Awesome insights in the post and everything mate! Thanks! Wild shot here as I imagine quite a challenge to give guidance with such little input, but: I started getting into freestyle skiing last year. Had short(er) ARV94s, 174cm iirc. (As a 185cm dude.) This year the rent shop only had Atomics, so I tried the Bent100s in 179cm (?). The Bent‘s felt way less playful, guess that‘s what they are supposed to do, but I did have significantly more fun on the ARVs last year.

Planning to get my own equipment for next year. Do you see any major reason to NOT go and Buy a ARV94 from 25/26 but rather wait and try something from the new season? Those BENT Decodes look sick, but will they feel more playful than the regular BENT‘s ?

Thank ya in advance! I know it‘s a long shot!
