Domians are much much softer than halos. I probably wouldn't want domains for 40% jumps and I'm only 140lbs myself.

Halos aren't that soft to be honest, not when new anyway. They were pretty good to butter on but a lot more stable than domains on landings. They are also lighter.

That said personally I preferred Domains (I've owned both this season) though I am now back on my Line SFBs full time.

the domains are fairly soft... not very stable on larger jumps.. I'm not sure on the size of the jumps at mammoth but if they're 35+ i would suggest the halos.. they would be more stable.
