I ride in the park 90 percent of the time. I am interested in buying some 2011 Atomic Punx. can anyone tell me how these skis ride? Are they heavy? How flexy are they? Easy to spin? Basically, I am looking for a ski that can stomp big jumps and bounce around on the jibs.

Punx will be perfect mate. They're buttery, really light, and spin like crazy, so basically they're perfect for you haha. Mine come in 12 days, just in time for first snow :D

i have last years punx and i love them. light, really nice for bouncing around on rails and such. theyre also stiff enough to ride out imperfect landings, but plenty soft to butter around on. and they shred groomers

182, just gonna be more stable. A) its symmetric so it's going to ski shorter b) it's silly light, so you won't notice the extra length as much

ya exactly like the above post. they are so light for a ski its not even funny. i was confused about what ski to get as well. i asked around, talked to the atomic rep and went to my ski shop and asked and everyone agreed on the 182
