They are a good park ski. They are pretty basic, no gimmicks really, just a light, cambered, quality park ski with a very low swing weight. They obviously excel in the park, however I haven't found them to be as good out of the park as my K2 Recoils were.

Also (presumably due to the light weight construction) they aren't quite as durable as some beefier park skis. Nothing problematic, but keep that in mind. They have held up fairly well for me, but not as well as my Recoils did.

If you are looking for a quality, weight light ski that excels in the park then they are a solid choice.

Will they last like 80 days in the park? How well can they butter? What's the flex like?

-I can't really say how long they will last. Totally depends on how hard you ride I guess.

-They certainly aren't super stiff, but I wouldn't call them a "buttery ski." I would call them more of a medium flex.

They pop fine, I wouldn't call them SUPER playful in terms of flex, like I said, they are more of a medium flex, so it depends how good you are at presses in the first place. This is my first season on them, I have some tip delam from tapping but other than that they are fine still.

Hmmm yeah I can't really help you there bud, never ridden the t-hall.

I would just go with whatever is cheaper. I'm sure you'll like either or, they are both solid choices IMO.

I have the jibs and I love them. I would really recommend them as a ski. They are your quality awesome park ski. Very tough skis, fun to ride, and I love them.

They will last 80 days for sure. They can butter pretty well and out of ten being super stiff they are probably a 6 or 7.

Insane

I have jibs, not the tw model. They're good skis overall super stiff, very poppy. I just couldn't get used to them bc they're so frickin skinny. Overall, just didn't care for the ski at all
