Replying to Faction Kennedy vs. Faction Candide1.0

Hey, so I've been trying to narrow down my ski search. Background info: I'm 5'11 165 lbs. I'll be skiing 90% park on these babies and it will be pretty even between jumps and rails. I've been looking for something stiffer and more durable than my current LTE's. They are pretty much noodles and are missing a lot of edge after only one season.

I'm basically wondering what the difference is between the Kennedy's and the Candide 1.0's. I've heard they're both a medium-stiff ski that can still be playful if you're strong enough to butter them, which is what I'm looking for. Other skis I've been looking into have been the Nordica Ace's and OMW's.

Any info -especially regarding flex and durability- would be dandy like a lion.
