I think maybe moment reno jib or rockers, rockers are not that stiff, and they have rocker so they are going to feel more butterable, and jib is more stiff but next year i think it will be better.
also you could always get some anthems!

Yeah I'd probably say anthems if you're not afraid of something used. Would compliment your extremes well. I'm almost exactly your size and they butter like a mother. Ridiculously flexy.
If you want something new I'd say whatever k2 named the silencer this year. (Silencer now is more like old extreme I believe) or if you want fatter, ep pros are crazy soft too.

Thanks a bunch guys! I was actually looking at the Anthems. For me it seems like it would be kinda hard to do rail with a fatter ski or am I just being dumb? More suggestions would also be a appreciated :D

I hear A-bangs are pretty heavy and can get thrashed really fast. or was that just a snarky comment?

that was actually a very sarcastic response.
here is a decent answer:

Moment Reno Jibs. or Bluehouse Mavens.

Liberty LTEs are super light and poppy, but not symmetrical. As far as symmetrical skis K2 Domain, Line Step Ups, Moment Reno Jibs and Volkl Walls are probably the best 100% symmetrical skis that are going to be out next year, so you can take a look at those. If you're looking for a softer ski that's symmetrical but not wide Line Afterbangs or if you can find the Line Invaders are good.

P.S-symmetrical park skis are just a marketing ploy. open your eyes to other options.
