Square tipped park skis

Powder tips and tail tend to be little square-ish, and there are park skis out there that are pretty darn rectangular. Anybody have any negative experiences catching a “corner” while buttering, landing, etc?

I have moments. The square tips are purely cosmetic. They don’t make a difference at all

i was hoping someone would say this. they dont make butters easier its all placebo.

the square tip vs a blunted tip is going to have basically no difference, but a square tip vs a round tip is going to be different because of the surface area.
 
square tips are easier to repair when damaged, they tend not to have full edge wrap which also helps on weight. no metal = forgiving soft spot . so thats nice. I cut out nice little notches for my skins to fit on realllll nice w/ my moments ;) O and grabbing both tips or tails seems work out quite well. just buy em dawg
 
One time I tried to hit the life pole and the square tip caught perfectly on it and almost pulled me off the lift
