Post pictures if you can. only respond if you know for sure what the flex is like. Are they pretty flexy for butters? im 145 pounds and i'd get 180s cause im 6'2".......and yes im a a lanky ass. what skis have about the same flex in comparison?

I wouldn't be so quick to say the SPK's are hand made. They are the only salomon freestyle ski made in France instead of Romania. I know that does'n tmea nthey are hand made, but it probably means they are higher quality. Get the older CR's or Candides if you can.

no. seriously, the SPK has been "out of the bag" for, oh, i dunno, prolly 4-8 months. and since the initial shots of it, it was made very clear that it is EXACTLY the same ski. there have been countless threads made by people asking exactly the same thing. so, if you dont know how the flex of the SPK is by now, you stupid (you obviosly spend time in the forums, 3500ish post in 2 years). and if you do have a question about a common ski like that, we all know what the first thing we say to newbs and retards alike is, now say it with me, SEARCHBAR.

oh, and anyway, the candide CRs ride very well, its an east coast ski with a narrow waist, and a moderately stiff flex. not a 2X4, but no noodle either.
