Good Soft Park Skis...

I need someone to tell me what type of skis I should get. I'm a pretty good park rider, enjoy urban shit, and am looking for something that will support what I do. I need something flexible, not too fat, around mid 170s in length, and something that rides smooth. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thanks alot,
Trix

One more time: 174 Scratch FS. They fit the bill perfectly. You will NOT be disappointed... best soft park ski I know of, and they aren't too shabby on the groomed, either.

ill be pissed if i dont get ahold of madens... wont know til december... there are a lot of them out there though, factory sold out of its first batch im told.

what i really love is how everyone places so much importance on skis and none at all on boots... which are a pretty crucial part of the whole body-snow interaction...

heres the list:

Line 1260-good all around, nice and light, best rail ski EVER, cheap/weaker edges than some competitors, narrow

K2 Fujative-Strong edges, super soft, cheap/heavy, maybe a little to wide for you.

Rossi scratch fs- Similar to 1260, very light and soft, better edges, sidewalls (better for rails), but a lil more $ for current models/thc core gives you a stiffer turn to one side, and a softer turn on the other.

armada t halls- AR5s with a soft core, and detuned edges underfoot. in my opinion, this is a humongus rippoff, cause the materials used in a soft ski are cheaper than stiff ones, and these suckers are like 550. plus these lack any all mountain ability, as the others will still be alright. if you got alot of cash, go for it.
