Which ski is the softest? I am looking for a soft ski, that can easily make butters.

Which one is best? Do someone have experience with these skis?

What is your...

Height
Weight
Skier Ability

Where do you...

Ski (east / west coast, new zealand, england...)
Ski on the mountain (park, all mountain, chutes, trees...)

The more info you provide, the easier it is to suggest skis.

^^ This is a fairly well written "What ski should I get?" thread.

So just from snooping around the internet it looks like the Rossi Scratch is an advanced level park ski that they put all their competition skiers on for X Games type stuff (i.e. probably stiff) while the Volkl Alley seems to be more of a beginner, soft park ski.

If you're looking for a beginner park ski that will help you butter and won't be a huge jump / pipe ski I would go with the Volkl Alley.

Also I would go with the 178 if you're a confident skier outside the park and can handle the bigger size.
