Pow skis that can shred park?

Just saw a thread in Ski Gabber with vice versa as the title. Are there any fat ass twin tip skis that are light enough to feel fine in park, but can still handle most conditions? Moment Deathwish, Surface Outsider maybe?

met a guy using moment bella for park only 110 underfoot. seen several people using marksman and catamaran in the park. imo park skis can be any ski if you want. abner got a post on insta with him doing the pc S with rentals.

I rode Nomad 115s in the park for a large portion of the season and they were a lot of fun. Its also one of the sickest pow skis I've ever ridden. If you aren't sure about the 115 underfoot go for the 105 but I very highly recommend the Nomad as a great ski for any terrain

I’ve hit tons of rails and booters on my JJs for years lmfaoo. They’re weirdly flexible and also weirdly poppy.

Basically any of Moment's freestyle skis. They're all light for their respective sizes, and I've been impressed by their durability.

The new Line SFB and Outline could also work. They're really light but still have beefier edges and a very freestyle-friendly flex, shape, rocker profile, and mount point.

Any of the ON3P Jeffrey skis could work, though they're not light.

Armada ARV 106 could also work, as could the Icelantic Nomad 115 (but make sure to mount forward of recommended on the Nomad, and it's not particularly light).

Absolutely loved the 1st gen hellbents in the park. Not the best for bigger jumps tho

rockin some 191 caylors all mtn, 120 underfoot (not much of a park where i ski). I hit a few rails and lots of natural jumps.

idk obviously a dedicated park ski would be best if there was a legitimate park.

marksmans for some park but most all mountain

i mean the blends at 100 underfoot could work in pow but it is a pure park ski at heart
