I am looking between these two skis and I was wondering which you would recommend for doing everything well from park to backcountry?

The 3.0 out of the two. But if you want a more park/backcountry ski I'm gonna throw out the idea for next year's J Skis "Vacation" or the Kartel 108

Having access to the whole catalog, I found myself on both the 1819 3.0 and 2.0 a lot last season. If you even remotely prefer more all mountain skiing, with the occasional lap through the park, get the 3.0. I could easily slide rails on them and they were great on jumps. the 2.0 is def more of a park ski feel (fully symmetrical and actually a touch heavier than the 3.0). It is 102 which is pretty versatile, but if there was a chance of fresh snow, I always brought my 3.0s or my 5.0s out.

The prodigy 3.0 could also be a good option, but it is a little less playful (it is damper and all-mountain focused). 2.0 will be too narrow for backcountry
