the ON3P Jmo in 181 or 186 (both jump up to 101 underfoot at that size)

Great ski for ripping groomers, crud and whatever else but kills it in the park as well.

Rocky Mountain Undergound Wisco
100 underfoot, with some tip and tail rocker and a little bit of early taper. They have the 182 size left in stock. Best all mountain ski i have ever ridden, makes the park its bitch and crushes everywhere else too. ridiculously durable as well.

Can't say I agree with this post having seen numerous Wiscos get absolutely destroyed in under a season. Extremely thin edges and I don't know if they've changed the build materials but in the past the skis were built with cheap cores and snapping them was way too easy.

this. so many posts, they are all good skis. Personally I ride Line Bacons because they are built with stronger cores and have a more even flex than the blends. I like them a lot in the park, I'd prefer a park ski for the spinny stuff but they work well for everything.

Virtually all the skis in this category are a ton of fun.

Op just needs to buy a wide park ski and stop making so many threads. Blend, or ltoro, or one life, maybe even Kung fujas. Go for it bud.

Ya dude that's the Jeronimo. Best ski in that category in my opinion.

take a look at the rmu apostles, they may be more on the all mountain side but they're super fun in the park. 105 underfoot, pretty soft and fast. the five point design takes a little getting used to but it's great

unlike the other skis mentioned in this thread, I haven't heard a single negative thing about the Jeronimos.

Gotta love NS...I recommend 2 skis that are exactly what OP is looking for (one of which no one has said one bad thing about (bacons)) and it gets downvoted twice...
