I'm not sure how stiff the 08 Tm's are. They are definitely enough to hold all mountain though, as with previous models.

I think they are kind of stiff underfoot, but the tips and tails are softer. But they definitely aren't stiff skis, but still kill around the mountain

they don't feel stiff, but they ski like they are, being super stable and hold an edge well. one of the better skis out there. scratches have a move even flex that skis very similar, but is less poppy and harder to butter (though you have to get used to getting onto the tips of TMs to butter well).

Yes the trouble maker is a new ski, wider under foot, tip& tail are the same now, edges are way better, there is an impact plate under the edges which prevents breaking.

SO good. I mean if you dont mind a medium-weight ski in the park, they do excellent in the park same as the whole mountain and if you enjoy skiing pow without canoes, they are excellent for the steep and deep too.
