Them being stiff, does it make it difficult in the park or no?

You're way off Freezy. You can put any bindings on the Tweaks. They're very light and very responsive, great for carving. They're a stiffer ski though so you have to be a powerful (or heavy) skier, especially in the park.
So as long as you're not some 10 year old boy with stick legs, you'll be fine.

The Tweak is a great ski. I'm on my second pair (first pair got stolen a few weeks into the season) Like it was said above, they are a very stiff ski so if your a weak skier get something softer. They rip on the entire mountain. I was just out west for a weak, we had 8 inches of fresh one morning and they did great. Being stiff, they carve awsome, kind of like a carving specific ski. I love them in the park, they have tons of pop and are a super light ski. Lighter than my old 1080's and PE's by far. Highly recomended if you like a stiff ski that is great anywhere you take it. Also, I have had mine for this whole season minus the first few weeks on the other set, and they are holding up great, bases are hella strong, topsheets chip less than other skis IMO but still do scuff up. Edges are in great shape still too, no dings, cracks or bends. Good luck

I have Look P12 Jib's on my Tweaks. And the skis are lighter than PE's, and 1080's. I know that for a fact because I've had them. People saying they are heavy dont know shit. They might have picked up a demo pair with demo Atomic bindings or somthing (Atomic bindings are tanks) Go to a shop and pick them up.

The older tweaks with the plate on em were really heavy, but they are way lighter now that they took the plate off. And you can mount your favorite pair or Look bindings onto em now.

hate to double post but also:
Who cares how heavy a ski is? Unless you're looking for a touring/backcountry setup, it shouldn't matter how heavy your skis are, unless you're a very weak skier.

I also have Tweaks with P12 and it is an awesome setup. they carve really nice and are not that hard to handle. They are great off jumps to really stable on big hits. Not to shabby on rails either now that I think about it. overall great skis.
