Can someone help me out?

Currently I ride a Salomon 154 Scotty Arnold (few years old - green top sheet with white skull on it). I find it a bit heavy?

I would place myself as an intermediate-expert all mountain rider but only advanced beginner-intermediate in park.

I would like a board that can handle all mountain as well as park. I am interested in progressing a lot on jumps in the park.

I'm on the East Coast - powder is not a factor.

I am 5'11, 145lbs.

Thanks!

dude this is the board for you. i used to ride a all mountain board and could get around the park a little bit... but once i took the banna out it gave me so much confidence... i hit rails i would have never even tried the first day out on it... and after a couple days getting used to it i started stoping 30fters!!! this board will shred the mtn plus kill in the park!! best $490 i have ever spent!

Also forgot to mention - I live in Canada and am worried about the top sheet delaminating after reading about problems with Lib Techs. Is this true? What's the deal with it?
