Help here guys: the pocket rocket which is a powder ski has specs of 122/90/115 and the 1080 (a terrain park ski) has specs of 114/80/108

now whats the difference between the both?? the pocket rockets are only 8/10/7 bigger and thats in mm???? thats less that 1cm wider - does that 1cm make that much of a difference??

If not should i get the pocket rockets as i like to ski park, semi deep stuff and groomers

 
So anyway what i'm trying to say is..... how wide is too wide if you want to ski %60-70 park/pipe??

I've heard that the PR tend to break under the boot but i'm only 5'9 and 67kgs and intend to buy the 175cm length so i'm not to worried about breakage

 
The Pocket Rocket is designed for deep snow use. If you're looking at that much freestyle usage, get the K2 Public Enemy (quite wide) or the Line Skogan. For that usage, the PE is tough to beat price/performance wise.

For the record, 1 CM makes a HUGE difference in edge-to-edge quickness, or, conversely, float.
