Im undecided between these two. Im looking for a lighter ski as ive had the line Anthems and ive found them a little heavy and as i live in the UK i only really get to hit small kickers so getting 7s round with the anthems has been quite hard. Sorry if this is a repost but due to the change in the search bar (i think) i have found it difficult searching the S4s (only 2 letters)
thanks

The s4's are super light. both are very good skis, I would probably take the s4's over the punx, but the punx are probably next in line.

does the s4 jib skis have good flex so that you can do nosepress and stuff?

i never felt a lighter ski than the punx. thats why i bought them. didnt feel the S4 yet but i cant immagine theyre lighter than the punx. the punx are even lighter than the alpha 1.
i love mine. theyre flex is pretty soft. supe rlow swing weight, really stable at speed and laying down turns

My friend has the s4 Jibs and he loves them. Not in your roster of ski choices but If your looking for a super light jump ski check out Antidogmas ( Amplid )

Sorry to bump and jack this thread, but im also curious about these 2 skis, I have heard that the punx is pretty soft but how soft? I find it hard to believe that a soft ski would be used as a pro model pipe ski.

I am looking at a ski that will be a good 'all park ski' ie good for rails (able to press and butter) and for jumps (up to 50ft) 

Just wondering if these will fit the bill
