Looking to get back into the park this year after taking a couple year break. Looking to get new skis. What's the best skis that do well in the park but also are good on other parts of the mountain?

If you want stiff ski I would recommend ON3P Kartel 98.
If you you want softer playful skis, go for the Armada Edollo.
For softer snow I recommend Armada ARV 106 or ON3P Kartel 108.

Check out the moment pb&j(101 under foot ) I used them in the park all season and took them with me to Colorado and Idaho and they worked fine for both park and all mountain.

I would go for the Revision Talisman. Revision calls it an "all mountain park ski", and it won some kind of award. My brother just ordered them and he spends most of his time out of the park but wants to improve his tricks.

I would second this. These are what I use for all mountain, but if you are cool with around 100mm underfoot in the park these will work well. The topsheets are bomber, and the edges will hold up decently.

A large portion of the Moment team uses the PB&J in the park so these guys are on point.

Also, a note on edges. There are really only two edge manufacturers in the world...so the likelyhood that the edge material on brand A is going to be the same on brand B is pretty good. A lot goes into the preparation of the edge for bonding, the VDS used and epoxy. Also, the sidewall material (UHWM, ABS, wood, or fiberglass (full cap)) is going to effect how the edges hold up.
