for park skis I would def say just go for reg camber underfoot and tip and tail rocker, otherwise you are going to wash out like mad in the park.

why is everyone wanting to rocker park skis? what does it do with the performance, or is it just for looks?

Good luck man, I tried to rocker a pair of older moships and it didn't work out too well, the cores are just too stiff. On the other hand I rockered a pair of ARVs, and it worked well cause they were a much softer ski. Definitely try it out though, hopefully you will have better luck than I did.

Works fuckin awesome!!
All you need to remember is,your topsheets will bubble a bit, if it gets worst then say 2 square inches, stop. Me and my buddy did them and we both had bubbling and they turned out fine. But he had let the heat gun sit on his one ski a little too long and it bubbled like crazy, and in the end the ski snapped hahaha, but anyway just do it and have fun, but be careful.
