So...I understand that the 04/05 Troubles get "noodly" pretty fast, so getting them used after a 25-30 runs would be a shitty idea, or ok. Not hard skiier but enjoy a rail and a good 360, learning to 5 and switch 5 this year so i need advice. Only money for 1 pair of skis and don't wanna blow it on something that wants to see how much it can bend.

I have some old TMs and they are pretty soft I guess but no softer than my PEs got. If someone invented a ski that doesn't break down they'd be makin millions, that's the downside of park skiing.

seriously, they dont turn into noodles, these people that say they turn to noodles are either 250pounds, haven't ski'd them, or are plain stupid.
I had a pair of 175s with alot of use on them, and ya they were broken in like any ski that has been used(softer than new) but no more than any other ski at that point. they did have amazing pop however, especially for how old they were.

even the old dynastar concepts dont turn into noodles that bad. infact, thought all of my skis have become softer after time, the only ones that i know to have become pure noodles are my 2 brother's elan air twist from about 2001, the first generation armada 0304, and 1st gen 4frnts 0304. My one friend had both the the 1st gen dynastars (0304) & the 0304 armadas, while the armadas were fucked after 1 season the dynastars lasted alot longer(minus the edges)and he still uses them today for water ramps and backyard shit. Anyway, its still early for me and if you get anything worthwhile from the ramblings above its that if you were to purchase new dynastars and take the rail sliding a little easy, u will be just fine
