Moment PB and J or Reno Jib

I am looking into both skis, which I will use primarily for early/late season skiing, and days when the snow isnt that good. I bought the S7's earlier in the year, which I will use for most of the season if the snow is reasonable. I want something I can hit the park with, and also mess around with everywhere else, which sounds exactly like the PB and J's. I am just wondering if that ski is almost to the point of overlapping with the S7 though? Would the PB and J be good specifically for park, groomers, and crusty snow?

Depends on how big you are, and how much you stand in the park vs. all-mountain playing question. But here's a good read for you: http://blistergearreview.com/gear-reviews/2011-2012-moment-pbj-188cm-2

5'8", 160 lbs. I definitely ski alot more trees, chutes, cliffs etc. than park throughout the year, but am planning on using the S7's for more of the all mountain side. I want a ski that I can beat up in the park the rest of the time, especially in late spring. I guess essentially what I am asking is what is the lesser of two evils between the skis, the sacrifice of park skiing on the PB and J's, or the sacrifice everywhere else for the Jibs

That is a good question. I am in the same boat. Anyone out there with some feed back besides the Blister review?

If you plan on the spending the majority of the time in the park, and want something that is a bit more forgiving (the PB&J is not forgiving as a park ski), but still functions outside the park. You should probably look at a park ski with rocker, now the vice is the rockered park ski from moment this year it seems. Maybe take a look at that?
