Stiff twin?

snakerton · 2012-02-14 23:29:56

Im trying to find an all mnt twin that is pretty stiff. Something that I can ski steep lines with about 90 waist. Got any ideas?

this should be in gear talk, but honestly you should be able to find the info you need without a thread. also i cant really recommend anything.

Nordica Ace of Spade's, I've never gotten chatter, they're park specific but I love them, they're my one ski quiver.

can't say about moments or surfaces or the atomic patent, but the only ski in this thread that i know of that can be called stiff is the volkl wall, which is not an all mountain ski.

4frnt msp, they're stiff, mid-wide and radical.

they get serious hate on this site, but i love my 2011 suspects. nice and stiff, poppy on the jumps. The chronics are also great but a little less stiff.

On my second pair. I had the 2010 and I broke them and warrantied them. The 11 were much more durable I thought. OP if you're looking for a stiff ski, the suspect are NOT at all. Super buttery but handle surprisingly well at high speeds however stiff they are not.

i wouldn't count on being able to find them, but i found a pair of Zag Freestyle FS skis at a ski swap this fall, they're like really stiff but depending on how big you are you can use it to your advantage. i weigh about 225 and they're poppy as fuck, but my friend is like 140 and he skied them and they were awful.

Prodigy's are pretty soft compared to their other offerings. If you want something stiffer around that 90ish waist, check out the Faction Wednesdays. Stiffer and more park oriented than the Prodigy's. Depends on what you're looking for. I can have fun on either pair of skis.
