They are good skis, but moment has had durability issues in the past. I have heard they are getting better though and I currently own some night trains. They are good skis, but I wouldn't say best. IMO.

"The best park ski" is really subjective so even if someone was able to ski every possible park ski their ideal ski would be different than someone elses best park ski. Personally I do enjoy moment skis and think they are a good park ski but by no means does everyone think that

Symmetrical doesn't automatically make it a better park ski. This thread is just going to be a bunch of opinions OP. so you probably aren't going to get to much from it.

There is no such thing as the best park ski or any ski in general for that matter.

Jibs blow durability wise. So no they are far from the best

Exactly.

Comprised of mostly people that have never even ridden the skis they claim to be superior.

#1) Your title to thread relationship is misleading.
#2)Insert whichever park ski each member owns here ______ and your thread is complete.
