I don’t really know, but they’re Vishnu’s they’re going to be softer than a lot of skis. That said, people can make just about any ski look really flexible. For example, take On3p kartel’s/Jeffery’s, people have made those skis look insanely flexible for years when that isn’t the reality, the magnus too even. I’m pretty sure that the keys will have the flex pattern closer to a traditional park ski construction.

talked to karko on insta, he said that compared to traditional rocker/camber/rocker skis it’s softer, around a 6-7 in tip and tail with a 4 underfoot, so if you can get into the 4 on butters they’re super fun

They also dramatically soften up over time. They are kinda stiff when they came, now are pretty soft (still much stiffer than something like the blend). I actually find the flex perfect. Soft enough to butter around and it be easy but stiff enough to hit big jumps and not feel like you are going to die.
