by twin do you mean park skis?

there're plenty of twins and half twins that are stiff as fuck and not for park, like moment garbones

they're really not though. the 2008 ones were pretty stiff, but they softened up after that to more of a medium flex. mine definitely aren't as stiff as my friends suspects

Pretty broad question. Depends if you want a park ski or an all/big mtn ski. Not many park skis are stiff. Some on the stiffer end are Nordica Ace of Spades, Armada Pipe cleaner, and JO's.

There are plenty of big mtn skis that are stiff, but many are not really made for skiing switch, they just have a twin for billy goating and making it easier to turn. e.g. Moment Belafonte/Garbones, ON3P Wren, Line mothership

My friend's feel extremely stiff, but I am super light and they are 06/07 so maybe they have softened up

i have the 07/08

the 06/07 is the karma, which the bridge pretty much replaced. i skied those too.

in my opinion the bridge isnt that stiff, i ski stiff skis though.

Dunno about the Bridge. My friend demo'd this years one and reckoned they've kinda broken it - he loved the old one.

Dynastar 6th Sense 'Slicer'(wider) or 'Distorter' (narrower)
Volkl Bridge (last years, new one is rockered so it feels as if it skis softer)
