If you want a pair of skis like that why not get blends or soul riders?

I think I worded that wrong. If you want fat skis for park why not get blends, soulriders or scimitars? They are all fat skis proven to be good in the park, but I don't know about the access and they don't seem to be a very popular ski here.

There are a few kids here who ride them in the park everyday, and we have a few in the shop to demo.

They're fairly stiff, but a good all around ski, they don't have that aggressive of a twin rocketed shape like the other skis mentioned. Go demo them somewhere and see..

I have ridden these skis for the past two years. The swing weight is actually pretty good given their size. But I would go with the ON3P Jeronimo since they have almost the same width underfoot and the Jeronimos were designed for park as well as all mountain.

You suck at skiing anyways so why bother.

Theyre pretty soft... super forgiving as an all mountain ski, would probably be a fine fat park ski.

My buddy takes his in the park occasionally and he says they're fine, but I've used my CRJs in the park and they work all right, just not great. I would say that if you ski a lot of park there's other skis better suited to you.
