I've looked at both skis and they seem to be the exact same... Could someone tell me how they're different besides having different top sheets.

I own both. Bought the 2012 PunJibs at the end of last season so I didn't spend a lot of time on them. I just won a pair of the 2013 TW Jibs and haven't had them mounted yet.

A few noticeable differences:

Dimensions of PunJib 118-82-108
Dimensions of TW Jib 114-86-108

The contact points on the Jib TW are significantly closer to the tip and tail than compared to the PunJib.

The Jib TW has a race base, making it a tad bit faster which we all know helps on those slushy park days.

Jib TW has edges that are 1.5x thicker than the PunJib.

I should have elaborated on this.

I'm referring to the dimensions on the 178cm version of both of these skis.

the twall jib makes you pretzel like a boss and gives you the highest level of steeze

Just realized I misread what you were talking about. My apologies.

Only difference between 2013 jib and 2013 Jib TW is the race base.

DO NOT GET THESE SKIS! I had a pair of jibs last year, blew out the edges on both skis within a week. the quality was absolutely terrible.
