steps aren't playful at all people say they are but they're not

If you want a more playful ski definitely go with the Step. It has nose a tail rocker which will make it feel a lot more buttery and playful. The Wall is just a no nonsense full camber ski which is great for skiing pipe and big jumps but isn't the most fun for doing butters and little jibs.

The wall is a way stiffer ski vs the step up. However I am not a fan of the step. I would say maybe look at the Line Traveling circus or Volkl kink. A little more expensive but buy last years new and your golden.
A few links to look out.
