IMO the width makes it easier to scissor for switch-ups and spins off, and they are soooooo buttery.  I have no problems spinning 450s off and 270s on with them, as well as stomping switchups.  Plus, i feel like they give you more balance, again, because of the width.

Agreed the width is nice. It has disadvantages, the swing weight is noticeably increased, but I had no problems with my tricks on them either. And they make balance way easier, the flex is so nice for presses and butters and stuff. If your idea of park is more about fun than tech then they are a good ski for you.
