Most stable skis on rails

What are the most stable skis on rails?

 

[Mackaroni_space]

I wouldn’t say there’s one god above all ski that’s the most stable on rails but I guess I’d say maybe some type of armada or k2 park ski, most specifically the armada edgeless or k2 poacher

I might be talking out of my ass here, but what makes a ski stable on rails other than width?

 

[isaacwrong]

narrower more typical "park" skis like the arv 86, helix 88, wet are all going to be a bit more nimble on rails and easier to swap super quickly with. Was ripping the future spin (86mm) for the past few seasons and finally moved onto the give'r (100mm) easy to adjust.

idk if it's just me but felt like the wider width helped with not landing dead bolts on a rail doing certain tricks

This is kind of a stupid question but i guess wide skis are little more stable

For instance perhaps pow skis even though they are super wide wouldnt be stable because of the rocker or perhaps would they be? Anybody hit rails on pow skis?

First legit rails I ever hit were on fully rockered 107’s. Once you’re locked in it’s like a whole different feeling than wets for example. More friction but more stability.

Any Volant will probably be the best.

Rails on pow skis feel great, until it’s time to do literally any trick. If you want to excel at park you need skis 100mm width or under. Excessive swing weight sucks ass and is unenjoyable.

I was on 110's for the majority of this past season and while I might have been more comfortable hitting like a step up to a skinny rail than on my 89's but definitely couldn't swap as fast.

Dill no longer does Durango

We may go back after this year. A buddy leased our old place and is leaving for good next summer so we have the option.

I would recommend volkl race tigers

 

[DesertStix]

Palo Alto seems MUCH different

Assides from having any ol modern park ski properly tight boots matter more
