How are Elizabeth's outside the park?

obviously they are fat which would be a plus in crud and pow, but how do they turn and does the flex affect powder skiing? just for future reference

I've never ridden them, but since they're a 110 waist, they can't suck at powder.

r u seriously that fucking dumb, elizabeths are not made for park, hence your question should be "how are Elizabeths in the park" but would u really take a 110 width ski in the park? probably not, you are a shithead
what's up now bitch

^dont be such a jackass to this kid... he was asking a legit question. people keep raving about the park abilities of this ski, so it would be logical to ask for the other half of the equation. i would think they would be good for pow from the waist size, but they are fairly short, so i dont know. i think they would be good, but not as good as a comprable width ski that was longer... but i havent ridden them, so whatever that means.

They're MADE for the park, so his question is right.

pussy footer your fucking dumb, they are a park ski. dont be such a cranky bitch. ive skied them in pow and aroudn the mountain and i thought they were awesome. im 5'6' so they were a good size on me. of course pollard is quite a bit taller, adn they are his skis, so they work good for taller people, the geometry allows for a shorter ski. the flex isnt weird so it doesnt hurt its performance carving/skiing pow. they are quite nimble skis. really good everywhere ski. literally

I can't speak for everyone, but I bought my first pair of fatties (mo'ships - 97 @ waist) for powder. I truly did not think they would ever see a groomed run.
Long story short, it has become my all-mtn ski, and has made me better in the park, and I will probably never own anything thinner.
Thank you - drive through

i have them too and they're just incredible. i'm only 5'3" so i actually got them as my BC ski cuz they're like miniature sized prophets compared to me. long story short, they kill it everywhere. after i got them i didn't even ride my park skis anymore, because the liza's were so much better in the park. and they slay crud and pow like no one's business. i don't know how they'd be on a taller person, but my guess is they'd be ok. they're perfect for me.
my level of radness... it just can't... be quantified.
