 Okay, i need a really soft flexible pair of twintips. i ski a lot of park but nothing too crazy. and i ski a lot of tight trees and bumps. the pair i rode this year were rossignol scratch's and i loved them. i ride 164 cms. i can spent up to around 450. please help me out. thanks. and im pretty small so light skis would be great. with a light swing weight. thanks

Check out the LINE Masterminds, they are super soft and flexy and easy to spin on.

if you want suuupppper soft you could get some old line invaders. or anthems. but for newer skis, 2011 blends are pretty soft but not very light. The lightest park skis on the market aren't exactly the softest, i.e., rossi s4 jib, and armada alpha 1, and salomon suspect, and atomic punx. Afterbangs are soft though, but semi-heavy.

the Atomic Punx are one of the lightest park skis out there, symmetrical and are fairly soft while still retaining a good about of pop, they are also not all that expensive.
I have heard they have durability issues although next year they are replacing the edge material with something stronger (not sure if it will actually improve things tho).

well worth a look at, considering what you are looking for.

also you said you want a soft ski but you liked the rossi's, they are one of the stiffest park skis out there, just sayin'.
