Head GP84 (Flex? Sintered Base?)

I have a few questions about these skis for anyone who's tried them.
Are they the same thing as the Caddy, or the JO Pros, and/or the Blueberry Lemon?
How is the flex?
Do they have a sintered base?
Thanks.

I haven't been on any of the other skis you mentioned, but I ski the GP84 good bit at a local resort that rents them out to park skiers. They're solid, they carve well on the hill and are pretty sure underfoot. As for the flex they're a bit stiffer than most skis I've been on. I imagine they're pretty durable too since they were rental skis and take a lot of abuse from rails and stuff. The only con I have with these is they're kinda heavy, but other than that they're nice skis.

Thanks man - They probably feel heavy because of the rental bindings.
The weird thing about these skis is that some people say they're really soft and others say they're really stiff. If only there was a standardized way to measure ski flex (and also boot flex, for that matter) ...
