The Scott Punisher Jibs and the Scott Jib TW are completely different skis. The Jib TW has a wider under foot, better/stronger base(Race base), stronger and thicker edges, and has a different flex pattern. I also have the Scott Punisher Jibs and they get thrashed up really quick, but the Jib TW is a completely different ski and was built to be more durable; the people at scott didn't want to get a bad rep for their skis once they started getting big(when they got TW) so they made their park ski better. So what you said basically doesn't matter at all.

explain to me what is not right.
 http://www.scott-sports.com/us/en/products/2241109992158/ski-scott-jib-tw-a-version-158/
That is the webpage for the TW jib. if you click on 'features' it explains half of the things that I said, and if you click on 'size chart' then it says the underfoot on each length; my 178 Scott Punisher jibs are an 82 underfoot and each length of the TW jib is wider than that.
