What do you think is a good super fat or fat ski that is really fun on a non powder day?

Ep pros are super soft and look really fun to do presses and stuff on, and hellbents are just awesome in every way so those would be fun i think

yes, i am talking about this years. the flat rocker in the front lets you do sweet nollies, butters,tip presses, whatever. they are not stiff. they are a ton of fun.

The Hellbents are a shitload of fun but too heavy for me.  (5'11", 175)  I demoed them at Snowbird last week and though they were really surfy feeling in the pow.  I can't even tell ya how nice the turns were.  They only thing was that they were too heavy for me. (maybe i just suck, don't hate).  In the air I just couldn't get them around like I like to.

Anyways.... I like my Atomic Thugs fo sho.

any new edits recently with park skiing on lizzies?...been really wanting these lately, but i can only afford one good setup at a time. Either these or just a "park only" ski

hellbents are so fun on hardpack just to fuck around with. i have bacons and hellbents and if i was gonna go fuck around on a non-powder day i'd take the bents. i don't have trouble riding them on groomers, they carve fine, and they're super buttery and fun. if you want to go a little faster and have something that will be better for carving then look into lizzies or bacons but they won't be as fun as bents

definitely Lizzies.  Full stop.  Having said that though, I'm 5'7" and demoed the Pandora (woman's version) and enjoyed it way more for 'playfullness'.  From what the guy at the shop said, the Pandora's are exactly the same ski as the Lizzies but just slightly softer.  Having had a few days on my Lizzies now I wish I'd just gone for the Pandora and got over the fact that they're a 'girls' ski.  Depending on your weight and height one of these is def your answer though.

Bacons
I live mine, super sick in pow, carve fine on groomers and are just super fun and stable although they are  fairly soft.  I'm 5'9 150 lbs. and they are perfect.  I'll probably buy another pair when mine die.

Lizzies bacons and bents carve fine? Bullshit.
Anyways the EP pros or bents seem like what you would want here.

bentchetlers are the most fun ski ive ever been on, and with a little bit of effort, theyll rip on groomers.

such a fun ski, and surprisingly versatile.

honestly i can carve much better with my ep's than with my anthems, you can haul ass and really carve hard easily, its pretty sweet that you can carve that well with rocker. but if you have ep's you dont want to carve, everything else is so much more fun.
