Walls will be a bit stiffer than thalls - The Thalls would make a great rail ski, but the walls would be a better jump ski - wider, stiffer

I'd get the T Halls, I have them and they are really sick. Stiff enough for you for sure. Siick park ski.

yeah true, you don't weigh much, the worst that would happenm with a real soft ski is that you may wash out the tails, i'd doubt you would overflex the skis though

im 140 lbs 5 6ish, got the thalls and their the mother fuckin truth. they are kings on rail once the edges become not so cut your face off sharp. and their great on the jumps, and their lots of fun. kinda chattery tho in the crud and death cookies and shitty in the bumps but mine are mounted very slightly foward. but ya great ski. def recomend it.

how much better are the t-hall's on rails then the wall's are the walls like a bad rail ski? is the jumping ability of the walls for like back flips big spins switch spins and like its overall air ability much better then the t-hall and is its swing weight better cause if it is then id take it hands down but if they are really similar then id just go with the halls because of their better rail ability or is it that much better?!? i am also mostly worried about the top sheets on the t-hall's because i hear they are really poor and scratch and chip easy does anyone know anything about this..its the 07 hall's that im lookin at btw i found them decently cheap.

All sandwich topsheets chip. Get the T Halls, they're a better park ski, especially at your weight.
