2011 Kung Fujas or 2012 Moment PB&J ??

So I've narrowed my search down to these two skis.

2011 Kung Fujas in a 179 for $360 or 2012 Moment PB&J in a 182 for $460.

I'm 5'11" and a solid 180lbs . I work at Jay Peak so I'll be skiing there all year. I already have 182 Alpha 2's and 185 JJ's and I'm looking for something in the middle. A ski that can ski it all, but really be soft and jibby all over the mountain.

I'm leaning towards the Kung Fujas, but I'm worried they might be too soft. The moment is more expensive, and I'm sure it wouldn't be too soft, but I'm worried it would be too stiff for butters and nollies and stuff. I've read a ton on both, and i'd probly be happy with either, just looking for some help pulling the trigger.

Any help is appreciated!! Thanks!!

i have had a chance to ski on both, and have a few buds who ski on both. if you were about 20lbs heavier I'd easily go with PB&J, 20lbs lighter easily go with KF.

I think that the KF are a little bit more playful / jibby, maybe more what you're looking for.

Might I suggest 4FRNT Turbo? I personally think it's a ski that is right in between those two, fun and jibby nose/tail but with a nice and stiff midsection. It's a bit more bomber than KF and a little more jibby than PB&J. Few of em cheap online too. $385 on BC.com

Between those two, I'd be leaning toward the Kung Fujas. They are FUN.
