What's the deal with these skis? Armada site says they are the stiffest skis in their line per their flex chart. They come in a 185 so it sounds like they would be the most burly jump ski they have, but they are cap, so wtf? Is this wrong to assume?

I am 6'3 210 and quit rails, so im looking for something for large jumps exclusively.

Thanks

It is a price point ski that is aimed at people on a budget or intermediate park skiers. But, this does not mean an advanced person could not ski on them, they are great for jumps. Stiff, rigid, stable, and durable.

I have them and they are my favorite park ski i have bought. Bought them when i weighed 230ish lbs and skied on them and hit smaller jumps. now 180 and on 25-30 footers they are really good. I love them, super light weight and durable. have griffons mounted on them and they are damn light. Also, there cheap in price which is why i bought them. hope that helps
