Whats up dudes -- Any suggestions for a 50/50 all mountain/park rockered ski for east coast (few inches ---> powder) / west coast vaca ski? I've actually never ski'd a rockered ski, but im lookin for something this season def (Nothing too crazy underfoot.)  Something that I can easily take into the park and not be worried about size n what not.

Thanks

k2 kung fuja, i work at okemo full time as a ski instructor and these skis do everything. They have only a slight rocker which imo is better for the EC...those skis kill it man, jus wish mine were center mount

i was looking at the JJ's for EC and a couple trips to CO.  I have ar6's for everyday/park.  Need something for the (rare) pow days and out west skiing.

thoughts?

Two of my bosses last year has Rossy profrom, one rocked the S7, he liked it but it was a little big for the EC...S3 should be killer
