Please dont say anthem or invader cause those aren't on the market now.
Thank you for your help

Elizabeths, Reno Rockers? Assuming you are only talking park skis.

I guess EP's. They are a bit softer than hellbents. Lizzies are the softest ski that has been produced, at least from what I have seen.

I'm in the same situation, I want something really similar to my invaders and I've decided to get some Moment Reno Jibs. They are flexier than last year's and also have carbon stringers like the good old invaders.
Here is a video from SIA:

The reno jibs are one of the stiffest park skis at the moment. And the rocker isn't even that soft, softer than the jib but still not one of the softer skis on the market.

umm havent flexed either the invaders or those punx in a while, but i guess they have a pretty similar waist width, both symetrical and soft. id say the punx have a better construction tho.

My EPs make my Punx look like GS race skis.

Yet to flex anything softer.
