I am going to get either the 185 JJ, the 180 CRJ or the Bentchetler and I wanted to know a few things about them. Which is the lightest of these? And which is the softest? And of these three skis, which would you recommend? I ski in the PNW and am 5'10 and 170lbs

the bents will be softest, the nJJs wil be the most versatile, and I haven't tried CRJs yet so I do not have an opinion on them
JJs and bents both use the elf shoe tech, which lowers the weight a good amount, but JJs will be the lightest of the 3.

I have the bents and I have to say for such a big ski they are extremely light.. yet I agree the JJ is basically a slimmer bent so it has to be even lighter..

CRJ is the softest and JJ the stiffest. CRJ probably has the lightest swing-weight while JJ probably is the lightest (if CRJ is'nt, they're pretty darn light). Chetlers probably has the best float.
Do you like tight or long radius skis? Soft vs stiff? Whats your opinion on taper? Cause CRJ has tons of it
