Both camber.

Syntax = 1650g per ski | TC = 2000g per ski
Syntax = sidewall | TC = cap

Flex on the Syntax is around 6-7/10

Almost identical sidecut radius, Syntax waist is 7mm narrower so a bit more responsive.

honestly, TC's arent very durable from my personal experiences plus my friends' experiences and they arent very fun skis either. I was incredibly dissapointed by them from all the hype but they are pretty bland aside from the flex, but its a dull flex with no rebound or spring or anything.

Also, Amplid came in as first comment, that alone should sway your decision. aside from that, i havent heard of anything bad about Amplids.
