Gonna get either of these pow skis but not sure which one. i know that the k2 hell bent is alot softer but not sure of exactly what the advantages are of a soft vs. stiffer ski in pow. I am a pretty competant skier.

Thnks Guys K+
Also it is purely for pow
Take a look at my review of next year's r2s it's also linked in my sig.
Personally I found them a little to soft for me at 170lbs
I dunno... they were among the first to bring rocker to plain old carving/all mountain skis, the Hellbent has had early tip/tail taper since it went to the 132mm waist... they're tweaking their designs pretty regularly.
I just wish they hadn't canned the old Obsethed shape, that was a killer 1-ski quiver.
