I use my hellbents in the park and there pretty sick. Super easy to butter and have great stompability. One down side is they are a little heavy.

I have no used them in the park, but these and Armada Alpha 1's are two of the true park skis that i can think of right now. Not sure if the alphas are symmetrical but i know the Rockers are. I've heard nothing but amazing things about the Rockers and I'm def gonna pick up a pair eventually

179s are something like 11.2lbs a pair.  I consider that heavy, but they are still fun.  Average park skis in the 181ish lengths normally weigh between 8 and 9 lbs.

I'll second the moment reno rocker.

Its such a fun ski. It really does live up to all the hype. They are absolute noodles though.

You could probably get this years for cheap at a shop. I got mine for 500 including some fks 155 binders.

If you have any questions PM me, I have them. They are great in spring crud too!

Where and how do you ski?

If you have a more jib oriented, playful style of skiing, go with the moments

If you want to charge a bit harder, and have more versatility, go with he kung fujas.


Personally, while I think the Moment reno rockers are amazing, and one of my favorite skis, they are Def no a one ski quiver, and can be kinda sketchy on icy conditions and larger jumps. But they are oh so fun.
