if you really want to do park skiing then look for the "line afterbangs" skis

check out the elan puzzle or just go to your local shop, tell them what you ride how big you are ect. and ask what ski they think would be good.

becoming a  good skier overall is mostly vital when trying to enter the park. plus park can get frusterating at times and you most likely will end up skiing all over. i thought i was just gonna be skiing park all year everyday, but to tell you the truth, i loved what i did before and i ski all around the mountain. but i do spend a good amount of time in the park. it all depends on how much you want to ski in park, get a line ski if you want to mostly ski in park. but if you want and all around ski that still packs a punch in the park and pipe, go for a armada ski

Afterbangs are a start but if you really want to progress you need to go further.

You will never get really good unless you get some Full-Tilt boots. if you get Full Tilts you'll be able to do double corks like Wallisch in no time.

Baggy clothes are essential too. If you clothes are not really baggy they'll restrict your movement and you won't progress as quickly. I recommend at least XXL. Tall tees are also good because if you fall they'll stop snow going up your back and prevent you scrapping the skin off your lower back.

Also remember that while skiing is for white middle class people, park skiing is for thugs and gangstas; dress and act accordingly.
