models like the old idiom, soma and prodigy (now renamed prodigy 1.0 & 2.0) are gonna be softer but the candide 2.0 has a really good flex for presses, butters etc and is a better all-rounder

I'd also say the CT 3.0. its a bit wider, but holy crap they are soft. Like, nearly as soft os the line Blend...

Depends what you use them for. As an all mtn cruiser/jib ski then yeah the 3.0 is dope. If you go into the park much then probs the 2.0. Its similar to the 3.0 in terms of flex but has thicker edges and a rail warranty from memory (thats from working there a season or 2 back but this may have changed so just double check)

As far as the title goes, 2.0 has it hands down, definitely the best flex in the candide lineup when it comes to buttering, playfulness, and reliability. With that being said as far as the softest ski from faction that I have ridden is easily the 3.0, and for some reason I found the ski to be awkwardly soft and all-around just an awkward ski.

I agree, skied them on a few east coast 'pow days' (6-10 inches) and unless it was untouched snow, the 3.0 couldn't handle chopped up powder at all
