Anyone have any experience with tigersnakes. I'm on the east coast and thought the 88 waist would do me good. I spend most of my time off trail and want something light and playful to boost some airs in the trees or bumps. I venture into the park once in a while and I want ski to start improving my tricks. Do you think the tigernsnake is good for me?

Just got a pair during the after season deals. A freind of mine has rode them for a season and they seem pretty good the only bad thing he has noticed is durabilaty he has quite a few sizeable chips but nothing affecting the actual ski

I would get some thing wider if you are not spending 100% of your time in the park.

On the east coast even off trail is usually hard pack, and the 88 waist should be fine for the rare "powder days" that we get.

Keep in mind that the tigersnake is an entry-level ski, it's pretty soft and it's cap construction. Depending on your skill level outside the park, If you're willing to spend a bit more money I'd go with something like the chronic, you'll have something that's versatile outside the park, more stable, but still flexy and lightweight. A good option if you wanna get into the park but still have something that skis well outside of it.
