salomon has foam...which sucks, rossignol is using their ths cores which is a mixture of wood and foam, and most other companies are sticking to the traditional wood cores which i think is the way to go

Rossi offers both THC and wood cores and if you compare both the wood cores suck.

However I like Armada's better then Rossis hahahaha.

Everyone one just hates on foam because everyone else does on here. From the foam skis I've seen its definately softer, and debatably less durable, but I've seen plenty of wood skis snapped, like my PEs for instance. Foam is also super light which is dope. Although some companies use crazy types of wood like bamboo and shit which I've never skied on but supposedly is light like foam but still nice and poppy/stiff... In my opinion if you're a light person foam would definately be worth looking into.

Dynastars are wood with metal "springblade" in the tail.

Liberty uses wood with a metal binding plate.
