As far as I know it's pretty much the same ski, but the 2007 model, which is called the "Punx" has the double edge moved inwards about half a centimeter so that rail slides no longer cause it to separate. Which is a big deal.

those are 08.

but to answer your question: the urban 06s are not symetrical and are beta construction(shitty racing technology) and are mad heavy

the 07s urbans are sandwhich constuction wood core and mad light and are of course symetrical

05 06 Trip Urban is beta construction, not symmetrical, studded in the tip, cap construction, heavy, a little on the stiff side, inner edge surrounded by ceramic

06 07 Trip Urban is sandwhich.sidewall construction, symmetrical at 107/84/107, soft as shit, with butterpoints, studded at both ends, inner edge surrounded by Ceramic

07 08 Punx, same as 06 07 trip but less butterpoint, more of a gradual softness throughout the ski, no studs (theres been on delam issues really) and the inner edge is moved in and i have found no problems with it seperating
