Dogmas aren't symmetrical... they're 119-86-111

Look into Moment Reno Jibs or Line Anthems, Anthems will be the softest and most fun probably.

if your looking for a stiffer ski you could go with moment Jibs.  Anthems are  great soft skis tho

If you don't want soft then go with Volkl Walls, they're pretty stiff and fun. The dogmas are super fun, they're pretty stiff, and have extremely low swing weight. I don't know about shipping to canada though.

next years jibs look pretty flexy, but I doubt that they'll be overly soft, seeing as this years were supposedly pretty damn stiff. what i'm saying is that i don't think they would make the jump from super stiff to super soft in one year

i like the anthems, ive heard better things about them than the afterbangs, but if you do a ton of rails and urban, maybe the afterbang.

walls are good too

Love my Walls.  They carve it up like a mother too!  I bought a second set to mount up for tele.

Anthems, ive heard such fantastic things about them. Id pick up a pair if i were you, if you want to spend some more dough moment reno jibs are also dope.

If you want to wait for next year though, K2 has a sick new smmetrical park ski coming out with a "park camber" which baically is no camber at all, its completely flat and makes up for it with big rise in tips and tails.

Also line's new "step up" looks sick

My punx are far softer than my old invaders, I think you're a little off by saying they are only a "little softer than walls."
