The jib is definitely much stiffer.  Better for all mountain.

go with moment considering what you do. I am getting afterbangs, but I will ski all park or messing around the mountain with them since I already have better mountain skis.

reno jibs for sure for this riding but u might want to also consider the chronics, or chronic chryptonites, they both have better sidecut for this type of riding and are super light for park. The cryptonites are fatter if you figure u will ski more pow than usual

Between those two I'd say the Jibs. But judging by what you're skiing you may want to look into the Moment Tahoe or Night Train. The Tahoe is a mid-fat all mountain ripper that holds its own in the park. The Night Train is a do-it-all one ski quiver that does park, pow and off-piste. Check 'em out.

I would definately say go with the Reno Jib's. The afterbangs wouldnt really make sense if you only ski 20% park

Have you thought about any other skis?  Those skis are extremely different, an many aspects.  For example: price, stiffness, where they are designed for, person they are made for, and other things.  I would consider some other skis.  Tell us what you are looking for....
