I have been looking to get either one of these skis recently, and I was just looking for some feedback on these skis. I ski park 90 percent of the time, but every so often I will ski the mountain, and even powder when I get the chance. What do you think about these skis. How are there flex? How are they in powder if I go in some? Overall any comments about either one of these skis. Thanks

I have seen both of these skis on the hill and the talismans seem sick. Both are dope skis but you cant beat the price of talismans. That being said i have hand flexed the da nollies a bunch of times and they seem like a really sturdy yet playful ski. Its up to you, soft and noodly or soft and sturdy, if that makes any sense...

both should be fine in powder though, the talismans have a shape that seems like it would float more but idk up to you

Da nollies are cheaper atm for 2015s. Talismans are $400? Now and Da Nollies are $300 on Skis.com

I also forgot to mention I live in Pennsylvania so I usually never get powder, but I am taking a trip out to park City, and I go to vermont every year at least once so that's why I am wondering how they are in powder, and should I get the danollies center mounted if I get them

id just get which ever is cheaper tbh. i ski the talisman and they are a very fun park ski, but they also rip groomer too. i skied a bit of pow with them and they hold up ok too. iv hand flexed the da'nollies and the talismans seem to be a bit stiffer. they both seem like fun well made skis, so like i said, id go with which ever is cheapest.

i can't tell you the first thing about da nollies but i can tell you that for what you described the talismans are dope. theyre a great park/resort ski.. and i happened to use them on a pow day last year and was 100% happy with them. theyre pretty soft but not terribly noodly
