zeros? alpha 1 has rocker, if thats what you concider a pow ski. jjs would be nice on jumps but not rails, hellbent or ep pros if you are stong enought to lug them around. chopsticks would be cool if you like stiff. moment has a bunch of pow skis, and they make light skis so they could be good in powder, but they all have long lengths. BH mavens are bamboo pow skis, also meaning thier light, but i dont know how they do on piste. obtheds cuz they would be fun to play around on, because they are rocker and skinny (for being a pow ski). the lord look sick but i dont know much about them. i could probabley list more, but i wont.....
just throwing that out their, correct me if im wrong
note, most of the time: k2 and kingwood are heavy; Bluehouse, boone, armada, and moments are lighter, making them easier to use in the park

The Symmetrical Nordicas seem like they would b a fun pow ski in the park.

I personally like to ski my Bacons in the park, they are a blast, I learned how to do Butter 3's with them.

Rossi Brigade, all sizes in stock
http://www.evogear.com/outlet/skis/rossignol-scratch-brigade-bc-2008.aspx
Dynastar Big Troubles - 176 bomb.
http://www.evogear.com/outlet/skis/dynastar-big-trouble-limited-2008.aspx
Gun - 188 maybe too big
http://www.evogear.com/outlet/skis/salomon-teneighty-gun-2008.aspx

You said under 400 and that's what I found on Evogear, I'm sure you can find similar prices/stock elsewhere.

All 3, inc. Gun are awesome for everything man, A friend of mine rode the Big trouble everywhere everyday and killed it in the park and pow, an amazing ski. The Brigade is very similar, basically the original scratch BC, which is one of the most versatile pow skis around, so nice in the park, but you're going to have to give up huge hucked fast spins and settle for a mellow style.
