What really defines a ski as a park ski anyways? Are we talking a max underfoot or somethin?

Armada Alpha 1
Armada Alpha 2
Moment Rocker

Those are the most popular out there right now - there might be some more but I can't think of any right now.

good question...I figured he was talking about skis that were designed for park that are rockered, but you can take any ski into the park (I know people who use their bents in the park).

Holy shit - I forgot ON3P Jeronimos

On top of what everyone else has said, you might also look at the new S3. I know its not a "park" ski, but it isnt fat, and has rocker. Pretty similar to the ON3P Jeronimo from the stats on it.

Is that for reals? It doesn't say anything like that on the website, and I've actually seen them in person and flexed them out a bit and I didn't really notice anything. Not saying there isn't rocker, but if there is, it was too small for me to notice.

once you push the camber out of the ski by pushing the center together you can see that both the tip and tail are rockered..they look like an incredibly fun park ski

I made a review on the reno rocker if you wanna check that out.  Used a demo pair for two days last summer, but just got my new pair mounted yesterday!

Won't embed the link, here it is though

check out palmer skis. its a snowboard company that broke into the ski business a few years ago and they make a park ski with a rockered tip and tail and camber underfoot and they might be symetrical but i'm not positive.
