Hey!

5'7
140 pounds

I'm looking for a rocker ski, which is really fun to ride, buttery, and mostly for JIBS. What are the differences between; their durability, performance in the park (mostly jibs), also ur experience with them of something u heard from them thanks!! Sorry for my bad english.

I'm about the same size as you and i have the blends. Super buttery when i want them to be but stable enough to lay down fast carves on groomers. I haven't ridden the soul riders but from hand flexing I felt that they were a tad stiffer then the blends.

i have the blend '14 at 178, i highly recommend the ski, its good for park, pow and groomers, a true all mountain ski. As well as being super butter and playful. hope that helps!

The Soul Rider is a just a much better ski interns of performance, durability, and quality of materials.
