So there's a few companies making long park skis for next year (finally) and I can get deals on Extremes which I know well and also Nordica Ace Of Spades & Dynastar 6th Sense Spin which I've not skied. So, anyone got info on how they ride? Specifically what sort of flex they are, relative to something else would be useful. Reps for both brands couldn't give me a straight answer for flex and just launched a sales pitch at me.

I thought the senses were the same as a trouble maker, so light, stiffer, and poppy, and that the AOSs were the same thing as ignitions, so mid flex, and poppy. Dont quote me though, im remembering all the way back to last November.

i didnt like the spins, i thought they were too stiff and the extra edge underfoot makes them kinda slow.

From what I'm remembering (clinic is next week) the Ace of Spades is a new ski for them. Symmetric flex and sidecut, with a sheet of metal in it. Medium-stiff flex underfoot, medium tip and tail, vertical sidewall and (i think) a ptex 4000 base. It looks like a pretty ruler pipe ski, it was designed for Olenick..
