How stiff are chronics?
I've got the opportunity to get a pair really cheap but I've heard comparisons to PEs which I had a pair of and hated.
Any info would be good. I there another ski that they're pretty similar to?

not as stiff as PE's but they're not a noodle either, are they the 07/08's? because the 07/08 chronics are softer than previous models, they are butterable

yes, they softened em up, and there's no carbon in them any more so they butter pretty well, but still do really well in pipes, they're a do everything ski

From what I have seen from other people riding them they seem like a fantastic ride.
