A good all around mountain ski with good park, used mostly on the east, stiff and alot of pop, which one takes the crown?

Well, the prophets really aren't in the same catagory as the other two. The other two are true park oriented skis that can handle the whole mountain okay (the Chronic better than the TM, in my opinion). The Prophet on the other hand is a all-mountain ski that can do park, but definitely is designed with a flex pattern for it. I would snag yourself a pair of Line Blends. They have the exact same dimensions as the Prophet 90, but have a flex designed more for park. It still rips all over the mountain, but will be more forgiving on rails and jumps. Good luck!

Blends are not the same dimensions as the Prophet 90s since they are 100 underfoot and the 90 is obviously 90 underfoot. That said I like my blends, just know that they are fatter than the 90.

previous years blends are 90 underfoot and would be an excellent choice.

i second this, they have the same all mtn sidecut as the prophet 90, but made with lighter wood and carbon laminate instead of metal
