Let's try this again.  How stiff are they?  If anyone has a pair, please comment.  I was thinking about getting them but want something buttery.  Thanks.

I had these skis...until i got warenteed 08 09s...so at first they were very stiff but began to loosen up after a few days. You really don't want that buttery of a ski because they don't hold landings very well at all...or at least that is wht happened with my fugitives...they walls are great in my mind, make good turns and you can still have a bit of fun with buttering with a bit of effort, depends on yoru size of course

I hear ya.. thanks for the input.  I have last years fujatives and really like how soft they are.  I also have the 4FRNT STL's from last year which are a little stiffer.  Something in between would be cool.

I dont have walls, but i rock 07-08 Bridges (Favorite skis ive ever ridden), and they have a decent flex. So the walls from what  ive heard and seen in shops probably have a real good amount of flex.
