yeah they are pretty soft in the tips, the tails feel stiffer by comparison but are by no means stiff

Seth will probably last longer if anything.  The armadas have thin edges and weigh like nothing.

i think elizabeths would be the perfect ski but.........

if i'm wrong corect me sounds like your riding 75% all mt 25% park?

i would consider seths?, brigade bc's, arv's, jp vs juliens, and the steeze in that order

arvs and brigade bc's will be better on rails and in the park, not bad all mt, and are relatively soft
jp vs juliens and the steeze will be better in powder and charging but not as welcoming in the park
i've never riden seths so i can't comment on the flex but i know some people do use them as both a park and all mt ski. its pretty versatile

the seth and brigade are deff not soft id say the seth is medium and the Brigade is deff stiff so out of ur choices that leaves out JJ which I know are light, soft, and ski everything great...maybe look into Line SFB or Elizabeth depending on what length u need
