I ride the Chronics and they're pretty fun, I don't go as hard as most people so they hold up well for me.

120 and 5' 10? sounds like you need to throw around some wieghts and eat some butter.. On the more serious note I had a pair of Head Jon Olson skis that were lighter than any other ski I've ever ridden.

Infamous is a light ski and pretty flexy, but they break very easily so i wouldn't really recommend them.

Then why comment about them in this thread?

OP, you could look at the k2 domain, armada al dente for a few examples.

pattyeiksI weigh about 120 lbs and am 5'10 tall. I'm looking for a light, playful, and soft ski that I can throw around and butter. I've been looking at Libe Blends and Chronics, but I want to here any suggestions you guys have.

The line mastermind is the lightest and flexiest ski out. The problem is that it's so flexy that it's the shittiest ski you will ever ride. It really depends on what kind of butter you want to throw, if you want a butter that you can boost out of you should get a stiffer ski (I ride k2 shredditor 92s which are pretty stiff). If you want a sexy looking butter go for a ski that's a little flexier. Something halfway between the shredditor 92 and the mastermind would be ideal.

Biggest tip for butters is that you half to get your entire body thrown off axis, pretend you're setting sw cork 5 when you do a sw tail butter. pretend you're setting a cork 5 when you do a nosebutter.

My friend has the chronics and they dont seem really buttery, kinda stiff actually but they are playful

I agree the k2 domains are pretty soft and durable but not light.

filthywenchk2 press, very inexpensive compared to other skis.

Gotta agree, Im a big dude and put my presses through a lot of shit and got two seasons out of them, delammed after some backyard shit jibbin. Not a great ski compared to what money can buy. flexy not sexy.
