If you can wait, the Chronic will have some rocker next year. Or you could get the Blends. A bit wider and more floaty, but still fun in the park.

As mentioned, the Chronic will have Rocker next year.
Check out the Salomon Twenty-twelve which is rockered and super easy to butter with.
It is a bit fatter than a normal parkski and performs super well in powder as well as the park.

Twenty Twelves are great for both park and pow. So fun to ski!

if you can wait, chronics for next year cuz the rocker will be sick. if not then my friend had some 2012's and used them in the park and the pow and really just shredded the whole mountain in them. He loved them so if you want skis now go for the salomons.
