I'm looking into getting a new pair of skis. I ski pretty much only park and hit about 30-40 ft. jumps. Both skis seem pretty playful and are at about the same price range, but what ski do you guys think is better? I'm 5'7" and 140 lbs. ++k for the help :D

I just got domains Friday, rode them Saturday. they are so sick very playful about the same if not more than my anthems. I skis mostly rails and small jumps and they are really nice. They have a very low swing weight and are pretty light. I'm 5,7 and 165 and got 169s but I like really soft skis

Yea, i've heard nothing but good things aboutthe domains as well as the punx. That's why i'm having a tough time choosing. Does anyone know which ski is lighter and softer?

Punx are lighter and stiffer. Domains on the other hand are really durable I've had roughly 30 days of only hitting rails and I've got only two edge cracks, usually at this point I've had edges rip out. They ski really nicely in the park and are a blast, but if you're looking to do lots of jumping then get the Punx because I've noticed that my domains are terrible when hitting anything bigger than maybe 35 feet...

Punx are softer and lighter. Handflexing doesn't count since domains are stiff underfoot then supersoft at the tips(rocker).
