Replying to Park Skis: Wide vs Narrow & Stiff vs Soft

lepp0012:
Wide vs Narrow & Stiff vs Soft

Alright, I'm looking for some feedback here on the pros and cons of each characteristic. Basically I'm trying to decide between Volkl Walls and Line Anthems for next season and I'm having a hard time debating the merits of stiff vs soft and wide vs narrow. Obviously, Walls and Anthems are very different park skis, and I'm not sure which style would best suit me and where/what I ski. I live in MN, much prefer skiing park but do ski a fair amount of all mountain when other people are out with me. I'm 5"10, 175lbs.

I currently have Fujitives, which are too noodly when I'm cruising around, but it doesn't sound like that's an issue with Anthems and definitely not the Walls.

Any thoughts, suggestions, etc would be great!

PS-I've used the search ball a lot to try to answer this, but still don't really have enough feedback.
