East Coast Rocker?

Since I snapped my old skis last week, I'm suddenly in the market for a new park ski. I realize the new "thing" is rockered park skis, but i was wondering, if I ski only east coast, 75% park (except on "pow" days) is a rockered park ski going to be worth it?

id wait untill next season and take a look at K2. im pretty sure all of their freeride skis have rocker but 1 (correct me if im wrong) ive also heard wonderful things about the moment reno rocker but those can get a bit pricey but with a 95ish waist and tip and tail rocker that should be the ultimate east coast park and pow ski

This is the answer to all your problems right here!


Check the specs.
Awesome all mountain dimensions.
Comes with what K2 calls Jib-Rocker. Zero camber underfoot and 20% rocker in tip and tail.
I got to ski these in Winter Park during On-Snow Demo right after SIA. they were a blast. So buttery and playful.
Let me know if you have any questions about em.

Yep those are definitely awesome, I haven't skied them much yet but as of now they are slaying east coast park, and from how they ride I know they will be great for east coast trees and "pow". The only thing I didn't like about them was for carving on hardpack/ice, but I think I just have to get used to them.
