Ive seen alot of ppl skiing park with BCs and im guessing the BC would do beter on groomers cause its thinner, and ive heard the prophet 100s are good to, and ive seen one person ski park/groomers with them too, but if ur gonna be doing park too and alot of just skiin around other than pow, get BC

The prophet has more sidecut and is overall a little softer than the BC so I would say it actually would be better all around. And as for width, you're taking 98mm vs. 100mm not a big deal there. I've skied both in all conditions and found the prophet to be lighter, and more agile.

the BC has the snowboard core making them a great cruise ski and a good park ski

PROPHETS! bc suck, cuz theyre to skiinnyyy. I skied prophets all year and they are def the best ski for big mountain powder that Ive ever been on. I had the 190 or whatever it is, But if you get the 180 size ive seen people shredding park on them. very versitale ski

you got some good points, but i found that they didnt handle that well on the groomers and were allright in the park, but not great.

the answer to this question is simple....the scratch bc is the pick that makes the most sense, because the prophet 100 and 130 are really only good for real big mountain, powder, etc. the cratch bc is made for big mountain also, but handles just as well in the all mountain scene, plus i dont think they r as expensive, so that wat i would get if i were u

I've been skiing on all kind of different BC for a couple years and I tryed next years and they are defenitely the bomb, very versatile with a lot of pop for the park, plus they have the wood core wich makes them durable too.

I think that the Prophet is more like the B4/BSquad, try looking at something like Mothership maybe? The Moship is more freestyle oriented than the Prophet.
