scratch pro for sure... much better feel i think... prolly will be able to flex it better as well... thats your best bet for sure... and they look way sicker too

Ya I have to agree on the looks, both pretty good skis for smaller people, I know that the flyer is designed for lighter people around the concept of the 720, which from my experience is flippin bulletproof, I dont know about the scratch on that.

perfect thread for me, cuz i own scratches, and previously owned a pair of flyers. ok, also, i was riding both skis during the same time. if you are strapped for cash, and cant afford the scratch pro, the flyers os okay. it has a nice flex, but i found it a little too soft......
if you can, go with the scratch pro....amazing skis, and i lone the flex pattern-soft nose and tail, stiff underfoot.....its a great ski and it is worth the cash

Can you read the dates. This is almost 1 year old. He has surely already purchased skis. And no, scratch pros are amazing! Super durable, and great flex points.
