Icelantic Danollies or Armada Thalls?

Hey I found some good deals on the 2011/2012 models of both skis, 170 for the Danollie and 171 for the Thall. I was wondering what every one's experience was with each. I understand they both have a good amount of flex to them which I'm looking for, since I skied the fuckin 10/11 suspects which were pretty stiff and had awful durability. I ski about 60% rails 40% jumps and I'm 5' 8" 135 lbs.

i am 5'9" 140 and i ride a 176 t hall. 171 will be nice on rails but i worry it wouldnt be enough ski for you on a jump bigger than 20 ft. next years is stiff underfoot and gets softer at the very tip and tail. still a stiff ski overall tho.likes to go fast on hard snow.
havent skied the icelantics.

AR7 are also good, very similar to T-Halls for a cheaper price. If you are interested in more info pm me.

true but IMO they are pretty flexy after skiing on them for a season. Amazingly poppy and can flex enough for good butters also they hold up on any jump or rail with the stiffness and durability. Just saying he should check em out.
