Still a good park ski

Today I traded in my Voli Juniors(crappy skis i got for christmas) for the K2 Fujatives. These were my only choice so i decided to get them. Are these skis good for park and all mountain. Also because i ski moguls and trees I got the binding mounted in the regular position, as opposed to in the middle. Is this a good decision?

yes on the mounting, just beware that these are mostly a park ski and if ur a big dude they wont handle to well all mountain, but they should do u pretty well, i think

if your conserned about moguls why dont you buy mogul skis and have a park ski as well. this way you will ski the moguls better, and you can have skis for rails with a centermount.

Yeah, fujatives are great skis. They are more park specific than anything else, but they can still hold a good edge on groomers... I dont know about moguls, but yeah, get a mogul ski for that only

I wish I had enough cash to buy 2 sets of skis. Besides, I dont want to grow out of 2 sets of skis in a few years.
