when i flex mine i got to thinking... if you land back seat on a jump wont you wash out because the tail is soo soft.

yes, that's why with soft skis you buy them big. I've been advising people get invaders alot bigger then they usually use, because they're so light, center mounted and soft, they'll ski much shorter.

awww so you'll wash out a bit if you buy the proper length of ski...theres a bit of a nudge to stop being shitty and stick shit properly on jumps aka no washing out
