msp's and karma's are stiff, arv's and fujatives are soft. anything else should be in the middle.

mojo is also on the stiffer side, fuja on the softer side. prophet is probably the stiffest of 'em all. could I ask why?

The only ski there I haven't ridden is the prophet and the firstblood, but from what I have heard on those two I would say:
SOFTEST
1. ARV
2. Fujatives
3. Scratch
4. Gun
5. First Blood
6. Prophet
7. MSP
8. Karma
9. PE
10. Mojo

I'd say that's very close, maybe the Karma and PE should be switched.

I dont know why everyone thinks the MSP's are stiff.
They are soft as hell.
Head skis are stiff. MSP's feel between fugi's and mojo's

I have the smaller size but im also a smaller guy. Big people on the longer lengths still think they are soft.

The only ones I've never been on even for a single run are the Ninthward Firstbloods and the 4FRNT MSP's
Otherwise I'd group them like this:
SOFTEST
K2 Fujative
Armada ARV
Rossignol Scratch FS
Solomon Gun
K2 Public Enemy
Line Prophet (though I tried the Assassin MTX, same difference)
Volkl Karma (my current skis)
Head Mojo 90
STIFFEST
I can't rate the 9thwards or the 4FRNTs as I've never ridden on them.

thanks for all of the responses.... this is for a snowboarder friend of mine who used to ski and wants to get back into skiing again, and he wanted something that was kind of a mid-range stiffness. i knew the ARVs and the Mojos would probably be on opposite ends of the scale, but i wasn't sure about a lot of the ones in the middle.
