well they are larger than a normal park ski, so i mean like pulling a 10 might be pretty difficult, but fuck that slow spins are where its at. keep it steezy, just dont enter any comps.

The only place that the Vicious or Scratch BC would be good at in Vermont is Jay Peak. They get sick pow! Otherwise these skis will not be good as they don't work well on hardpack.

Well if you want an east coast super fat ski, get the line prophets, lots of reviews have said that they rip it in groomers and no doubt kill it in pow. Not sure if they are any good in the park. Everybody would think you're so cool though cause of you're super fat skis

If you mean the Vicious don't work well on ice, sure but not many skis do. If you mean they don't work well on groomers, you are mistaken.
