pretty much. MSP=powder, all-mountain
FS= park.

a more comparable rossi ski to the MSP would be the Scratch BC, or the Sprayer BC

or if youre interested in park you should be asking about the stl vs the fs. like everyone else said it all depends on what you want to use it for. if youre looking for park, i'd go with the stl. rossi still uses foam cores, which is lame.

which is part of the reason i said the sprayer, which is also cheaper, is smaller than the reg BC so is a good all mountain speed.

rossi's cores use the THC core technology.
"A composite 3-material core:
Isocore: liveliness and lightness
Wood: responsiveness and ski/snow contact
Microcell: shock absorption

rossi cores have rubber (ish), wood, and foam. its a good thing. its not like a salomon foam core.

umm they use their "thc" core which is foam and wood, so it's light, but not as soft as if it were all foam. If you ask me that's super sick, not lame. do you have anything in particular against foam or are you just a proud member of the salomon haters club?

i have FS's and they are dope... msp's seem like they would be hard to move around on rails and jumps... but better for BC... FS's can deff hold their own on BC but..
like they said
apples and oranges
