I'm looking for a light flexible setup

Ok.. so far its pretty much down to the wall or the troublemaker for a ski, however I'm open for suggestions. As far as bindings, a lot of people are telling me to go for the px12 again but I havn't felt what the pivot bindings are like or any other bindings. I'm 170 lbs 5, 10. I have nordica speed machine 12 boots which I think have been pretty good for what I'm doing so far. I ski about 80 percent park, 10 percent woods, and 10 percent messing around. I really want a ski that performs well in the pipe especially. Does anyone have any ski and binding suggestions?

well, light and flexible would be more like a salomon setup. bindings and ski.
trouble makers arent all that flexible. but they killllllll on jumps.

Actually, just pointing out that the px12's aren't pivot. They're just a conventional binding design, but with a tiny bit more horizontal elastic travel. You won't be able to tell a difference.

if you want flexi, get a 4frnt stl with deadbolts. after about a 2 week period the stl becomes sooo super duper flexi. such a sick ski. and they have a college program.

light and flexy=Line Invaders for skis, but the durability is questionable. Salomon also, Thrusters, foils or Spks. 4FRNT is also dope, and the 35% off college program from them will save you money....

I've got a wide foot and I don't like the cuts of most of the solomons. What about the volkl walls? does anyone have some info on them?

Get the px12 jib troublemaker bindings, they are pretty light, pretty good, and pretty damn steezy.
