NEW SKIS

pretty sure halo's are stiffer than chronics. line has the softest skis

oh, what about the THalls

http://armadaskis.com/product/skis/

what would the chronics be flex wise compared to the armada skis

Chronics are a super soft ski. T halls are playfull and butttery but stiff underfoot for jumps. If you know how to butter right you can do it on almost any ski. Get the t halls. Id say the 176's

I thought the chronics were supposed to be a stiff ski?

The cryptos r stiff, but I would say the reg chronics r softer than any current armadas, except maybe the cantika

THalls and Halos should be softer than Chronics, they're meant to have a softer flex pattern, they are soft in different ways though. For example, the Halo is soft because of the rocker, so it's not that it's a soft ski, it just feels soft, while the THall has a soft tip and tail but stiff underfoot so this allows the rider to put more pressure on the tip and tail without having to do more work because his underfoot is very stable (unlike say Afterbangs which need to have a soft core to butter because they bend underfoot instead of hinging....not necessarily a bad thing, just different).

If you want a softer ski than the Chronic, but will still preform well, look at the Liberty LTE (cambered) and the K2 Domain (rockered). The Halo and THall aren't bad options either, I've owned a few Armadas and really liked them. I do have to say that the Domain and the Phil Larose (old name for LTE) are the two best soft park skis I've owned so far (and that includes a bunch of Lines).

i have cryptonites, i didn't know they were stiffer than normal chronics

Huge difference in flex pattern

oh shat, how stiff are they compared to the other skis mentioned

^ I would call the crypto a med to med stiff ski, where I think of most of the skis people r talking about in this thread as medium to soft flex

Everyone is contradicting each other, therefore get blades and boss hawg it

Lol
