i would advise most jibbers to buy a stiff ski. most begginers should buy a soft ski because the are forgiving

my scrathes are soft and don't chatter and ^ I don't necessarily agree with that, stiff skis are not fun.

If i was buying a jib only ski there is no way i would buy a stiff ski, the only thing a stiff ski really helps with when jibbing is tailpresses and most of the 'soft' skis have stiff tails so its pointless to buy something like the mad trix over the fujative or thalls if your jibbing. Skis like that make nose butters so much easier and dont really hinder the performance of them when grinding at all.

Softer skis are easier to ski. For example, womens versions of regular skis are softer than the regular ski. Softer skis are better for park/pipe, whereas stiffer skis are for those who go outside the park. The except to this is a powder skis. They are softer because it allows for better turns in the deep.
