Skier: Not necessarily a pure park rat, but pretty close. Always looking for terrain, both in and out of the park, to trick things up.
Terrain: Think 75?% in the park, 25?% out. Wide enough for decent soft-snow performance.
Turn: Reduced sidecuts and fatter waists make carving challenging though not impossible. Switch turns are as important as forward turns.

Skier: Open-mountain tricksters who spend practice time in the park in order to fine-tune their game for big-mountain, soft-snow antics.
Terrain: A fat waist — sometimes over 100 mm — calls out for deep snow. The more terrain features for trying tricks, the better.
Turn: There’s more to the sport than just turning. Hucking, straightlining and surfing powder switch come into play.
