Line Chronicles vs Travelling Circus

Yo!
I've had my heart set on the Chronicles mainly for their all-mountain shred capabilities, however I can't find any online store that stock the 171's.
Has anyone skied the Travelling Circus'? How do they stack up on the mountain compared to the Chronicles? I can get a pair of 171's on Backcountry in the TC, so would they be worth it?
I realise both would shred in the park, but its all mountain which I am interested in!
Thanks and K+ for help!

For all mountain stuff, the chronic will ski better than the TC. Bear in mind though no ski you've hit rails with is going to ski groomers as well as well as they could without being slammed onto rails.

first of all its the chronic.

tc is strictly a park ski. Super soft and playful
Chronic is little stiffer, better for all mountain but basically still park ski.

TC wouldnt ride as well out of the park due to their soft flex.

Okay thanks man! Unfortunately I can't find anywhere online that stock the 171 Chronics. If somewhere can link me I'd be eternally grateful K+++

I have exhaustively searched the world wide web, and have come to the conclusion I cannot get the Chronics. Considering I am only 143lbs, do you think I could get away with the TC all mountain? I know they are soft but I won't be able to flex them a ton since I am very light, should be sweet?

Your not that light. Youd have to worry about that stuff if you were 120
