If your talking a 1 ski quiver, ON3P Jeffery or J-mo would be a good bet. I have the jeffrey's. They are a little on the heavy side for my park tastes, but they absolutely slay every other aspect of the mountain. I've never skied the jeronimos, but they're like a narrower version of the Jeffrey, so I would imagine they would be more of a 50/50 park/all mountain ski than the Jeffrey. The Jeffrey is a good 1 ski quiver choice for someone who skis 35% park and 65% all mountain. However I live on the east coast and use it as my dedicated powder ski.

Aight, for a pow ski check either the Majesty Knife or Superior... most likely the knife. For park you should get the Majesty Rock n Rolla. My friend has it and loves it. I also know that SSM has the knife and superior and loves them. If you want one for both then my suggestion is the Majesty Vandal. Enjoy

so your a grom? Thats probably one of your best bets for a junior all mountain ski. How tall are you and whats your weight? If your big enough you might want to look at some adult skis too.

pro tip:
1) go to the most expensive store you know
2) ask them what their most expensive ski is
3) buy it
4) end up hating it but who cares
5) profit???????

If your looking for something that tears up groomers and still shreds in the park, check out the Moment Tahoes. They are a 95 underfoot so if you don't get into much powder.. They are for you. You seem to be leaning towards moment anyways. xD GL finding a ski you like. Btw, i've been riding Tahoes for about 3 years, and they have very few dents in them, no edge cracks, no major damage. Thats 30+ days a season too. Tip and tail rocker are sick. If your looking for a more park ski... ON3P Filthy RIches are nice. =)

you want a powder ski that wont let you down? Right here! http://www.boomtownsports.com/2011/ullr-skis/
100% laminated bamboo powder ski with an entirely new shape and sidecut. These ski's literally weight NOTHING, they have a good foot of rocker on the tip and tail (there is even a notch on the tail to attach skins) I ride these things everywhere, i got them when i was out west this winter and they performed amazingly. They are actually AWESOME at carving on groomers, they ski like a short ski and really hold an edge. I even ride these in the park at my hill in Ontario (only on jumps and trannys) they have nooo swing weight and stick backies like nothing.
i seriously suggest these skis! Did i mention they are hella affordable?

Well they're really good skis. I recommended jeffreys because I fucking love mine. But there is definitely a lot of people on NS that just say on3p is the best when they have never actually owned them.
