Prophet Flite in Park?

So last year was my 6th(?) year of skiing and I decided to get into park. I went with the prophet flite knowing that they would work all over the mountain but could still play in there. Now getting ready for this season I definitely want to do more park, but is there something that makes them less than ideal for it? They are certainly light and snappy, yet I never see them mentioned when it comes to park. What gives?

prophets are not park skis...they will work, but chances are your's are mounted pretty far back, which sucks for park. get a real park ski

Might as well check WTT/WTS. Thanks, and if you can recommend anything let me know.

If you're able to sell them, look into something (from Line) like the Chronic or Blend.

I've had Prophet 90s, and Blends. I found the Blend to be a much funner all mountain ski.

Yeah I'd say chronics or blends....but yo for real....if you can handle some width, I hear the new bacons absolutely kill park....I have yet to ride em but to me they seem like a pow-capable version of the chronic....way different from last years bacons....I'd at least take a look at em....
