Gotama's or Mantra's

I'm thinking about getting new ski's for the powder as well as skiing on the groomers and pipe because my fuji's don't have much of an edge left. I'm thinking either the gotama's or the mantra's.
They're the same price so that doesn't matter.Gotama's are 130/05/122, the mantra's are 130/94/113.

Are the gotama's versatile enough or should i go for the mantra?

Mantra's are way too stiff for the pipe (I own a pair)

Gotama's are great for pow and even groomers but if pipe is a must, get the Seth Vicious, it's softer and has more sidecut for groomers, but not so much that it's hooky

Yeah for sure. Mantras are way to stiff for pipe. Good luck finding pipe skis that are good on groomers.

my friend was on his mantra's the other day, and he said they were amazing on groomer's, but he did say they were stiffer than he thought.
