I know these skis are very different, but which is better for me? I ride about 70% park and 30% groom. I heard the bc's are a really good all around ski, and fuji's are pretty much a park ski. What do you think?

I dunno. When you see pics of the pros and stuff, alot of times they are riding their BCs in the park. You get alot of extra stability with the waist it's got. If you're considering this years BC, I'd say go for next years Scratch FS. They're making it wider and stiffer next year (more like this years BC... but not quite).

BCs are simply better skis. You should see Jib_This jibbing rocks with them, He did too many of them to count, and barely ended up with a scratch on the bases. Riding them in the park is highly reccommended. They are, however, stiffer than Fujis, so that would be the deciding factor. How soft do you want your skis?

id say go with the BCs. And if you get the BCs you may want to venture out of the park and do other stuff.




SMILE, its the second best thing you can do with ur mouth

those are completley different skis meant for completley different skis. fujatives=park BCs obviously are Back country.
BCs are a better all around ski.

Fujatives for all-mtn, exposed faces, tech lines, freestyle backcountry.

BC's for solely park, rails, in-bounds terrain.

Actually its the other way around.

I've got a brand new pair of 179 Fujatives, still in the plastic. I'd be willing to let them go for around $250.

last years bc's are sick. never heard of a problem with them. and fujatives arent that good in powder. in bowls or whatnot theyre not anything that should be considered a powder ski. actually out west 2 people were like 'wow those are fat skis' 'sick in pow right?'
i was like what the fuck? the guy on the right of me has volant machetes. mine are like 85 at the waist. his are like 90-100. stupid story.


pretty sick
