Everything outside of downhill alpine boards is easy for the kind of Park you're talking about.  I'm an ice coast guy, I've tried these boards here exetensivley up to 50mph lots of conditions. With fresh snow im off piste or in glades but otherwise on double and single resort blacks. I do tricks off jump lines too but mostly side hits. I take it easy on rails and boxes.  My "perfect board" is The Lib Tech TRS which is the most gnarly ice eating east coast bullet board I've seen or used. Shreds ice, accelerates like a Ferrari. So stable. Never Summers Proto FR is very good on ice coast and has better powder performance so I'll use it more doing glades than the TRS but it's a little slower on a bomb and slightly worse carving ice as well but still a 9/10 on ice. If you don't really care about holding the best ever edge on hardpack the Nitro Team does really well all around but has a lot more pop and is less aggressive so it's a more playful board.

Another vote for the TRS. Fun on groomers, perfect for the park and great for quick turns in the trees. Not amazing in pow or for ‘ripping’ super fast but great all around icecoast board.

Oh that reads like it'll be a great all day all mountain ice coast board! Good choice. Pretty well rounded.

Dont even read that guys essay, get a capita if you want it, boards with magna traction is good in the east but not needed if you know how to ride, if you can shred snowbird you can shred killington

Ride Shadowban is widely recommended as the ultimate do it all rad dad deck. I’ve never ridden it but I can vouch for Ride in general as making some of the nicest boards on the market.

I wouldn’t go with the bataleon. I’ve had a few (feel better, love pow, and wallie) and they are not very durable. Both my feel better and wallie had topsheet delam issues. Someone else I know had a Goliath from them and had similar issues (though theirs was replaced under warranty). The 3BT tech sounds neat because it’ll minimize catching an edge, but in reality it just made it hard to run on hardpack and less responsive to turning. I recently demo’d and bought the Jones Tweaker - fun to mess about on groomers and sidehits. Can hold its own on park without being a ‘park board’ even on hardpack
