i ski east coast and i rocked lizzies in the park for half of this season, but stopped using them because i didnt want to fuck them up on rails....lizzies SHRED all over, including the park. The width helps absorb alot of shock from big landings, they are REAL buttery, and in my experience, it is virtually impossible to slide off of a rail on them, and setting up a scissor to spin off/switch up on rails is so much easier because the width allows you to bite the rail better/easier...i would definitely recommend them if you are the right height/weight, but demoing a pair first would be my best advice
