the night train is 37mm bigger in the waist, which I'm sure you are aware of, that's a lot more waist to deal with when spinning and hitting rails...I'm not saying you can't do it, but I don't think you'll be happy with it if you spend most of your time in the park, which you stated you did....if you want something a little  bigger and stiffer, why not look at the tahoe?

You seem set on moments, I heard the night train is very good in the park, especially on jumps, not so sure about rails. Why not look at the Rocker? Its a 114/92/114 vs. 111/86/111 the rocker should make it less likely to catch an edge on the lip. You should let us know what your size/weight is. I would lean towards the night train if you ski everything, but for just park then either the rocker or jib.

Honestly if you have the funds i would lean towards the night trains at 181 cm, they are lightweight for their width, and from what I have heard ski everything, even ice.

Everyone who posted in this thread is an idiot. Dude the first thing you need to say when you are asking for reccomendations on skis are your height, wieght, where you ski, and how you ski. Don't get the night trains for park.
