You're going to want to post threads like this over in Gear Talk, but plenty of people ride 100mm waist skis in the park with no problem at all.

I broke my park skis and skied hellbents (130mm waist) for the season. Not great if your looking to be technical but fun for butters, shuffles, and other things.

basically everybody on the line team rides the blends (100 underfoot) and you can see how well they do with them. I have blends, haven't ridden them on snow yet, but my 95mm traveling circus' were gr8

i ride edollos or al dentes and theyre 98mm underfoot and a ton of fun, maybe a little heavier than most you'd use in the past but you gradually get used to them and they're a lot of fun

Those are pow skis for kids so im guessing you are young, you should probably get something more park oriented, whats your height and weight?

Yea ar7s are pretty good park skis for beginners (im guessing you are a beginner because you are looking for junior skis)
