I've heard great things about both skis, you'll be happy with whatever you pick.

They have huge tails, so that would be a bonus.

The softness of the Lizzies would be a problem for me because it would decrease stability in variable conditions outside of the park.

Both would be excellent, with the Big Troubles a little more geared towards park, and the Elizabeths towards powder. If you don't mind heavy skis and spinning relatively slow, go with the Lizzies, you won't regret it.
