lizzies and rockers are very different skis. the rockers are a park ski. but my friend has them. he skis mostly park but they seem to kill it wherever he goes. idk if i would buy them if i didnt mainly ski park though

being symmetrical they wont ski(nor do they do in my experience with them) super well out of the park. look for something with traditional side cut, such as on3p j-mos, kung fujas, ect

I had them for a season and while they were better, they weren't massively better in pow stuff than any other symmetrical park ski with around 90 underfoot. the rocker does help but not all that much. For trees in utah, i'd say you are gonna want to look to something a good deal wider.

They aren't a great carving ski, but they do great in the trees.  I skied mine all year through trees and pow and loved them.
