In search of fatter park skis, any suggestions?

I just broke my armada alpha 1s today and need a new park ski. I made the mistake of selling my Armada halos and ARGs this summer, so I only have my JJs left. I am looking for a fatter park ski (waist between 88-95) and it has to have rocker. I love armada but they dont have anything big enough. So far this is my list of skis I like in order, On3p filthy riches, on3p jeronimo, k2 iron maiden. I have looked at salomon and am not impressed by their skis in general. I am 5'10", 145 lbs, but ski very aggressively. I am from vermont but I ski in utah now. I need a ski that I can pull bigger spins around on, ride switch at high speeds, and be able to get around outside the park a little bit. I prefer stiffer flex skis, longer skis, and fatter park skis. Any suggestions of skis I should consider? also any reviews of the two On3p skis I mentioned. Lastly please dont bring up the line chronics or blends, no hate on them at all though

I don't know what your flex preference is, but Domains and TCs are both on the softer end of the spectrum. But I've heard nothing bad about Filthy Riches if you can afford them.

The tc has a perfect size waist but no rocker, and anthems wont last the way I ski... I would prefer to stay away from line. what about the iron maidens compared to the domains? also I am not to worried about the price, i just want the best skis out there

Dont the new chronics have rocker? If so they have like a 92 underfoot and are an overall solid ski.

The new iron maiddens have camber, thats what the difference between the revivals and the maiddens are so it will be a lot stiffer, tje domains are nce but rhey are very soft and xan still hold an edge

Check out the Rossi Scimitars. I made the transition from Alpha 1 to the Scimitar this year and I love them. Subtle but full rocker, 96 underfoot, pretty low swing weight, medium flex, handle great outside of the park.
