Will I notice a difference on a more narrow ski?

what do you define as normal? 90mm underfoot?

Ya like 87-92

It won't be a huge change, you'll get the hang of the narrower ski within a run.

are you asking if it's worth it to get a separate pair of skis just for the width difference? i don't think so at all. only reason i would get a skinnier (80s) waist park ski in addition to my upper 90s waist park skis would be if i skied a ton of pipe or something

Yeah or if you wanted lighter skis to do rails and jibs with... Or if you wanted to carve around with, but even then my salomon rckr2 100s are solid on the groomers.

I would only get 82-90mm waisted ski if you want a designated park/ rail/ pipe ski, and save your slicers for all mnt and bigger jumps

You will get used to them really quickly within a run or two if you're a strong skier.

I love ripping my skinnier skis they can rip on ice. I also have a pair of 70mm race skis that tear apart ice as well.

Good to have in the quiver if you have the $ for them definitely can't hurt.

I'm asking if 90mm will be noticeably easier to ride in the park than 100mm

Short Answer: Yes

i dont think so no. i skied 70-90 waist park skis from like 2000-2010 and since i switched to upper 90s waist ive never once wished i was on a skinnier ski. pipe jocks and full time park rats might disagree but that's it IMO

depends on the ski I think. I rode blends for a lot of the winter and they were fun and not to difficult to ski, they may have had extra swing weight due to being 185. My 88mm afterbangs were thinner but overall heavier, so on rails they were just as weighty to swing around but not as fun to surface swap as the blends.

I also have a beater pair of line skogens tho (76mm) which are genuinely fun skis. In addition to being narrow they were also light as hell which made them real fun to ski on. I learned most of my new tricks on those then transferred them to the blends.

tl;dr narrow skis make difference unless they are light too
