It really depends on what kind of ski you like, both are legit companies. It's better to choose a specific ski to ask about though, not a whole company.

All the park skis are redesigned and brand new for this next year. New shapes, new top tooling to eliminate chipping and reduce weight and all new camber profiles.

I'm riding a K2 S4 Park and it's a really cool Allmountain skii!
I can't say anything about K2, never got one but they look really sick and I can imagine that K2 could have a bit crazier stuff for park.

The S4 is a rossi ski not a k2 ski

You can't judge a brand by their team, tons of pros ride suspects.

I usually never even think of K2s when it comes to park skis (powder and all-mountain is a whole different story, they're one of the tops on the list for those categories), but I'm kinda itching to try out these new designs and might pick up a pair of Domains or Revivals when my shop gets them next month just to try them out.

i'd say rossi. my k2s snapped and any rossi ski will be lighter than the k2 equivalent. but unless you're getting them for really cheap, i'd get a different brand.

Rossignol- S4=best park ski ever made
K2- Kung Fujas= allmountain killer
Rossignol- S7= OMG WANT
K2- Pontoon= Floats real good and stuff
Rossignol- S5= All Mountain jib stick looks real sick shreds park too
K2- Rivival= looks really fun rockered park ski
Rossignol- My choice
