For next year I want to get skis that are ridiculously soft. Any help? I've had k2 fugis for 05-06 and this year i had 05-06 Trouble Makers and haven't been too satisfied, but not disapointed either. Who makes skis that will fulfill my wants!??!?!

Everyone who thinks ARV's or TM's are soft have obviously never tried a real park ski. If you want to go even softer than the Fuji, try the Invader, the Habit, or the old 1260. Also, if you are looking for a fatter ski (powder style) that is really soft, try the Seth, the EP Pro, or the Elizabeth.

that year of scratches are some of the stiffer park skis on the market. Not to be mean or anything, but you should demo some other skis, or even flex them in-store before you go and give advice.

WORD.

Surface Watch Life are the stiffest park ski I ever had and they butter / pop easier than any ski I ever tried. Never skied 9s tho.

To whoever is screaming Scratches, those are hands down some of the stiffest skis you can get. And the original 'white' scratches, as sort of precursor to the sprayers, are the worst skis I've touched in my life. they suck. they have 0 pop.

very true. and to people who suggested the TM's, i have no idea what you are thinking. they aren't stiff. but they are definitly not buttery. they are the same stiffness through the whole ski. so they are not even close to being very flexible

You're an idiot. Those skis are definitely not buttery. Just because you can do that, doesn't make them buttery one bit.
