i've ridden my 07 tms in 20+ inches of the east coasts finiest fresshies and its not bad. On the flex, i wouldn't exactly call them soft but one of my racer friends thought they were. Downsides of a 78 underfoot ski. easier to grind?

I think nothin but trouble is the same but a little more stiff? I think big troubles are the ones with different dimensions, unless its all different in the 07/08 line.
i have 05/06 TMs i love them. theyre flexy but not what i'd consider soft, i feel like i gotta give a good boot to get them flexing but once you start pushing you can flex they pretty far

TM no doubt. NBT aren't really up to par this year in my opinion. i have this years TMS and they slay everywhere. kinda flexy but i'm not realy confident in my butters so i can't say much. plus i'm only 130. and i'm clueless on flotation in the pow since i live and ski in indiana. but my friend went to big sky in january with the 05 TMs and he said they did fine

yeah i have the 07 trouble makers, the nothing but troubles are the same ski but they just are made out of weaker base, the TMs are solid in pow and my favorite part is that it has extra p-tex underfoot allowing the edges to stay in and not fall out. as for stiffness theyre soft enough so that you can butter and shit but stiff enough so you can get a shitload of pop off of jumps

my friend has a pair and seems to really like them. The only downside i see with them is that they chatter on the steeps.

The guy I ski with twice a week just got them a month ago and loves them. They seem to carve great. He brought them to Utah last week and kept up with our fat skis just fine on a 6" pow day. I hope it helps ya.
