Can't tell you anything about the P4's, but I've been riding the old Intoxica P2's forever, and they're one of the most durable skis I have ever owned.
Surprisingly they're even still snappy.
I did finally get a cracked edge on them last week though. Not too bad for 4 years of heavy park use.
I think I'll be upgrading to the P3's soon

Has anybody demoed these things yet? Or at least flexed them? Stiff? Soft?

They have a pretty stiff tip, but a really soft tail. They rock all over the mountain. The 181 is a pretty solid park ski, I'm not sure how well the other lengths do in park though.

that's nice, but the rep at a ski expo for rossi told me that the flex of the core wouldn't start to deteriortate untill like 150 days or something rediculous. he also claimed that every ski in the expo that they were selling (a friggin buttload) had each received 6 hours of hand tuning and were in in "better than new" condition.

what does this have to do with anything? 150 days until deterioration? that's like 2 seasons, and that's pretty good? what are you on?

my point is that that's total BS so just becuase a rep says it doesnt mean it's true. and props to you if you get 75 days a season.

I'd just like to add that the CO rep for Scott and Helly is the FUCKING MAN. Jeff is the most awesome rep ever and if everyone here knew him... I bet half this site would ride scott and helly. haha.

But seriously.. P4's are awesome.. and can take a beating.

Sorry to add to this thread after such a long time, but was researching the P4s and came across some information that doesn't quite fit the above?

See the following thread at ski builders for information on actual tested flex of several fatties, including the P4. The P4s tip and tail seem to have a very similar flex:
