Anyone have B2's and ride park and all around with them? Im think about getting some and puttin some TM bindings on my old skis. The b2's look fat for the trees, but would be good enough to carve up grooms and twin tips for the park. I'm just starting rails and stuff as i just got the balls/ interest this year. They look like a great all around, but how are they in the park?

They have a 76mm waist, not that fat, but a solid all-mountain ski no doubt. They were a sweet demo, but a little too expensive when you can ski better for less.

Strangely, I very recently heard a biting, negative review of the b2 from someone who demos a lot of sticks... before that I'd have been with you, but now, I must suggest a demo. Shouldn't be hard to find, pretty popular ski.

if you plsn to hit the park why not just get a twin tip that's more all mountain orientated?

Personally I was at the same kinda choice, wanted the B2 but ended up with TMs. Rember the B2 flex patter is not designed for jumping and riding switch .
