Skiing park with camber

I'm thinking about getting some new skis, and really want to ski park, but I ski a lot of pow too so im looking for more of an all mountain ski. I really like the stuff J skis produces, so im thinking about getting the Freedom Rocks. The only problem is at 98 underfoot and with camber, how well do you think they'll ski park/slide rails? I am better off looking for a better ski?

Pretty narrow if you want to ski pow too. Shreditor 102 or Shreditor 112.

Its not a huge importance, I just dont want to be riding 85s in light pow. Im more wondering how well would those skis perform on rails. Does camber have any effect on that at all? I skied 2012 volkl bridges(95 underfoot, no camber, symetrical) last year and i'm worried if its going to be a big change

those are 98ish in the waist and have camber (plus some nose rocker yeah but still.. camber)

OP, no that will not be a problem at all. i don't understand why that'd be an issue at all

I have shreditors 102 and they performed really well in the park too
 
If ypu dont sesh the rails all day, 98 is not fat at all for park, i love my 98 underfoot for nice park laps, feels great landing, go for up to 110 fo sure, it'll be fine in park.
 
Consider this:

There are guys who rip in the park on pow skis (Lizzies, Bacon's, Hellbents, One Life's, etc)

Pow skis used to be 220cm, 75mm underfoot dh race skis.

You can make anything work if you know how to ski.
