The t-hall is a solid ski, i own a pair of the 08's and they are my favorite jib ski. they beefed it up a bit so it should do great for competition, it should be at about the same flex as the anthem. If you like soft and unique flexing skis, the t-hall is the way to go, if you want something stiffer, go with a Salomon dumont or k2 extreme

That's about it. I ride the older version of them but they are pretty much the same thing besides that they are a bit softer than the new ones. I really love them. Great for rails and smaller jumps.

i have the original t-halls and anthems.  i know there are drastic differences between mine and more current models (mainly that they no longer come with "factory detuned edges") but i prefer the anthems.

Fucking amazing ski.

Durable as shit. Great for jumps, any size. Can butter if you want it to. Great for rails.

ONLY negative is the top sheet chipping, bases are bombproof. I honestly have no qualms about these skis.

you said your getting the 09 right? well I was hitting some 65 footers with my T Halls this year and they didnt feel squirly underfoot at all. they will do fine for bigger stuff. better than the anthems for sure.

ya man get them, they are great skies, my friend has skied on them for like 2-3 years with no problems and you can butter well but at the same time they are great off jumps and jibs. we've also hit urbans with them and they are really good. ive skied on them a few times, great skies

All Armada skis are pretty durable, good for jibbing, jumps, etc. but AR6 and pipecleaners are the best.

I'm totally blamking on the name of the ski, but there is a really good one by K2.....

anthems are really poppy which makes them great for rails but a little tougher on big jumps
