BC= Backcountry, if your skiing back country, obviously for you.
FS=Freestyle, Parks and Big Air, i'd recommend it.

I have the BC, demoed the FS. Felt like i had more control on the BC. The BC is good for everything, i use it in the park all the time. Its a good all around ski. If its gonna be your only pair of skis, i would get the BC's but if you need a good park ski get the FS, the FS is awsome too. Im actually looking to get a pair for park.

philous rides the BC's for the park. there's a shitload of people riding park and pipe on BC's so i'd guess the BC's are a better park ski for some reason

188 super long? depends on your height and style. 188 would not be good in the park, i have 176's and demoed 182's (both BC's) and 182 was too long. And yes the BC's are heavier, but when your in the air is doesnt matter all that much.
