I can buy, a one season old, these skis. Which skis will be better on park, or does not matter because it has a same proportions?
thanks

I really don't see why you would mount a PR or Scratch BC at center. That's such a terrible idea for when you get out of the park. It ends up defeating the purpose of getting a BC-specific ski.

cravenmoorheard - if the scratchs got THC core, does that mean that i could get high off them?

had pr's then demoed bc's. the bc's are way better all around. stiffer, butter better, more pop and look better. pr's chatter a lot and the core breaks down real quick, so they have no pop. bc's, no contest.

^Can we please just ban these people? If you say something like that in your first 50 posts, it's fair to assume you're not wanted here...
182 BCs = Most versatile major-company twin in production in my opinion. Demoed them once, loved them. Demoed them again in a 188, loved them in a few feet of Baker pow. Do not center mount them, that's idiotic... I'd go mounting line or maybe a few cm forward. No more. Maintain their versatility.

Pocket Rocket over the scratch bc anyday.
better in and out of stuff for bc.
by far the best big m ride ever... that's why they haven't had to change it.
don't listen to the foam thing. it's totally not true.
if anything all rossi skis fall apart after a season.
