What do you love more park or powder? I'm personally ready to forsake all things groomed and head for powder all the time.

just lean back and it will work. cuz i rode powder on my line skogen sprang models and they are only 86 underfoot and it just did fine. i wasnt in super deep stuff but almost 2 feet of powder and worked good. just have to muscle it more.

Imagine skiing in powder made of pizza, and every time you make a slashy turn to get a face shot, you get a mouthful of cheesy and meaty goodness.

I have the same setup and I haven't had any problems with my s4's. Still ski really well at centre on groomers, moguls, and some crud. Don't see why they wouldn't work. I skied a centre mounted Volkl Ledge that was 8-10cm too small for me in 3 feet of fresh at whistler and it was still fun, actually skied really well before it got tracked out and turned to crud.

Park no doubt. A more fair comparison would maybe be park or backcountry jumps but skiing powder is too monotonous and uncreative.

But for people who don't get to experience "4ft of fresh," how do we know..., i have experienced some powder skiing, its damn fun, and if i had the chance maybe i wouldnt touch park if there was some deep nearby. But i live in icy michigan, as far as i know, a nice rail line with some creative jibs/urban is my preference.

I love pow, Its relaxing and it feels like you float on watter...... But the reason why i also like pow is because people dont choose youre line, In the park theres a medium line a pro line ect.. pow you just have a field of trees cliffs and pillows that is your park and you can use everything as you want,

But park is sick too, I live in holland so i ski in a fridge now pow pow there
