Look into the Nomad 105 from Icelantic. Great ski with a nice wide tip for staying on top of powder but also giving you a nice butter zone. Match that with a nice mid flex pattern and an already nicely stanced mount and you have a killer do it all ski!

They’re so much fun! You can float on top of anything and tail manual endlessly. Should mention I don’t hit rails with mine since I have a dedicated park ski, but a lot of people on this site seem to love them in the park.

I looked at the devastator, but went with the vandal cause EAST COAST plus I already have a 108 underfoot

Fun in park, just skied it in a little over a foot in pow and I liked it. I am a bit on the skinny side of 6 foot (165) so the stiffness underfoot is enough for me. I’m not sure how a heavier person would like the softer tips/tails though
