Im looking at both skis and wondering which i should be getting, i hit mostly rails cause i just started park this year and am a bit scared of jumps, but i want to improve on that that is why i want to get a good jump ski. I know the punx is a bit softer, which i like but are they TOO soft? Im 5"9 140lbs and i also want to know stuff like swing weight, etc.?

Punx for sure.  Those skis are the perfect flex.  Soft enough to play around with butters and rails and whatnot, but stiff enough to hit big jumps too.  I would go with them for sure

dogmas are crazy light, but also quite stiff, the punx are superlight, a really nice even flex, soft enough to butter and jib, but stiff enough for jumps (hence why so many pros use it in slope and big air). Plus the punx are symmetrical. soooo..... Punx fa sho

i have the puns and i love everything about them. their swing weight is unreal, super easy switch ups and such. real nice on the jumps too, stiff enough to ride out backseat landings. soft enough to butter like toast.

Dogmas, I hate atomics, they are so floppy and arent durable, get the dogmas.
