the spk is a cap construction ski from my experiences with salomon skis they are stiff and from playing with them in the shop they are stiff i think salomon designed them as a pipe ski but ive seen plenty of people ski them all mt and park. And the onlt thing i know about the Lib tech is it has magna traction which seems like a dope ass idea idk how it works though and it is a sidewall ski idk about flex etc.   Someone correct me if im wrong on anything im just going from what i know.

I got the 176 freeride. Super stiff freeride skis. Stable at high speeds. Busts through crud. Swing weights good, I have them mounted at recommended and they are really easy to throw around like its center mounted. Stiff tale makes sticking backseat landings a breeze. The quality however sucks. Top sheet gets fucked up easily. Chunks have been ripped out of my side wall and top sheet. The bases are durable though. Its alright on ice. Ain't no powder.

It is pretty much a matter between stiff and soft
