softer generally , but it also depends on the flex pattern, researh the t hall pro medels and the k2 fugatives and thier flex pattern, they will prolly tell you how it works

Stiffer the ski the easier it is, if you are on a softer ski when you put weight on it it is morel ikely to wash out. The stiffer it is the more it can support the weight over it.
