Yea, looked at the Nomade' they look good. Have you tried any Icelantic? Iv always picture'd them kinda hevy..and the Nomade is kinda stiff
 
On3p jmos are where it's at. Great do everything one quiver ski (especially for a Midwesterner like myself. I consider myself to be a bigger dude (6'4, 190) and the jmos worked great for me. They absolutely crush everything. Very responsive and fun in the park, especially with the rocker. Super fun for all mountain and jibbing. They're pretty lightweight compared to other skis of similar size I've ridden. And they actually work pretty well in powder, had almost 2 feet of fresh at hood 2 years ago, took out the jmos and they were super fun, they float pretty well even tho I had to ski backseat a little because of them being center mounted. I really have nothing but positive things to say about them. I know most people say they are pretty bomb proof, but I did end up breaking two sets then moving over to Jski's this year which I have yet to ride. On my first pair the sidewall started to tear out the the ski snapped at the tip. Second pair had the heel piece tear out and the top sheet delammed all the way to the tail. I did talk to a few different guys over at on3p, and they all said that both of these issues are extremely unusual. There customer service is unmatched as far as my experience goes. I would definitely go with the Jeronimos for you. Once again, just an amazing all around do everything ski!!! Hope this helps
 
Awsome bro, Im def leaning thowards them' as you describe them I feel they would fit me perfectly...just got to find the best site that ships to Norway' kinda hard to find sometimes hehe
 
rossignol slats are fun but a little heavy. the scimitars are a little better but you might have a hard time finding them, they stopped making them
 
the nomad would be an absolutely horrible park ski haha. don't even bother.

as the dude said above me the rossi slat is absolutely amazing. It behaves like a park ski in the park but slays all mtn like it's not a park ski. I wouldn't call the slat heavy though unless you put some super heavy binding on it. it's extremely nimble, the tip/tails are so soft!
 
Just get in touch with them, it shouldn't be much of an issue. You might have to pay a bit extra but you should be able to work something out
 
Icelantic a are made for telemark and touring so they run pretty light, the stiffness just depends on the model and year. If I remember correctly, Nomads are stiffer than most pure park skis but handle all mountain really well
 
I can vouch for the rad-factor of JMOs. Just got a pair of the 2013 (96mm underfoot) and they rip. No less agile than my 88mm ace of spades but with more stability.
 
theres a loical guy at my hill who rides the park with k2 hellbents and hes amazing he even agrees they are a little unorthodox but he likes it hes strictly rails though and ive tried them un and they do feel a little bit slugish and those are super wide skis

 
Today I got to ride my Jski's firsts. Broke my arm 4 weeks ago so I really didn't hit the park too much. They ski very similar to the jmos. But have a different flex pattern, I would say the firsts are a bit stiffer. Maybe give Jski's a look too
 
Check out the Fat-ypus L-toro

They're a little fatter than your standard park ski and are super playful. I love cruising on mine in the park.
 
my friend has a pair of nomads rkr ( blue and purple ones ) and he loves them! light , playfull , soft and they are super solid! i strongly suggest!
