When spinning around and stuff, can you guys tell the difference between 300-500 grams in each ski (compared to another pair that is heavier or lighter), does less weight really make that much difference, or is it more about the technique of spinning than anything else.

Just looking for some new park skis, comparing chronic and traveling circus. TC is a bit heavier but more buttery which is what i want. Just evaluating pros and cons.

put squire bindings instead of jester pros, and you will feel the difference.

Atomic infamous all the way.

Do this if you like bad advice.

OP you will be fine, might take a few runs to get used to though,
