    100mm+ skis and rails?

    A lot of companies have all-mountain skis in the 100 - 105 mm range and I am wondering how they do on rails? I know wider park skis have more stability on rails but make it harder to do swaps and spins but is 100+ mm waist too much? Any input appreciated

    ON3P jeronimo 13/14

    I really want to pick a pair of these up but I would like to ride them in the park a lot as well as all mountain. I wont be using them in pow since I already have a pow ski. I'm a bigger guy but I am wondering if the 100 mm or 101 mm waist is to wide? Any input is appreciated, thanks
