b3's arent really a twin, and neither are all that fat as far as powder twins are going. but if you use the search function, you should be able to find some info and what others have said.

It depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for stability go with the BC's, the PR's are pretty soft and have a foam core (which makes it a bit lighter but less durable). The BC's have a bit of a longer turning radius. They both are good skis.

You really should check out Pistols and Moships. Pistol is a good 'straddle the fence' kinda ski where it's soft enough in the pipe and stiff enough for the nastiest of heavy snow days.

Another one to consider is the Mad Trix Mojo. That ski is a little more geared toward the B.C. than any others we've listed.

The B3 isn't really a twin but is a pretty sick BC ride.

the rossi seems like it would be better for the steeps and deeps because it is rather stiff, which means it will hold up on the steeps and wide enough for the powder. i was also looking into fat twins and everyone kept telling me to go with the seths, but they are just too soft to really hang in on the steeps, and thats what i want.
