my freind needs to get new skis next year and he wants some really really flexible ones. Right now he has a pair of junior STLs (or somthing like that) from a couple of years ago. All of teh skis he has tried out he complains that they arnt flexible enough.
What are teh most flexible skis that they still make or are easy to find?

I would think junior STLs would be very flexy, since adult STLs are and junior skis tend to be softer than the adult version ...........
Line Invaders are some of the softest skis I've ever ridden though, can't think of anything else off teh bat

I would say anything along the lines of the k2 fugitive. He may even want to look into this years to get a great price for a very flexible ski. They are fun too!

not as flexible as ud think. hand flexing them, theyre much more similar to the older seth pistols (ive heard they come out of the same mold? but im not sure on that one) than they are to the current fujative
