I have not tried the rockered Kung Fujas though,
I have skied the 09's and ARV's. The Jeronimo's floated better then either of the others, but that was on the traditional camber K2's, so not sure on the rockered ones. I would rank them interms of favorite: Jeronimos > '09 Kung Fujas > ARV, I do think that the rocker will make the '10 Kung Fujas way better though, just not sure how much. The main reason I would chose the Jeronimo's over the Kung Fujas is price.

to your second question, yes they are sick skis. One of the best traditional all mountain skis for someone who is in to this newfangled backwards skiing hotdoggin rubbish and likes to do helicopters an Iron crosses off yumps. I was really surprised how well they handled a lot of different snow conditions. They were really responsive in anything from hard pack to chopped up powder. I never skied them in supper deep blower though. As for park I can tell you that they pop really nice, land well, and are comfortable switch, I think the Fujas's were a little better skiing switch though. I can't really tell you much about swing weight or rails since I am not exactly your park skiing supper star, but I did not have problems with any of the three skis in this department.

I would say that the Fujitives are a medium-soft ski, they are not really stiff at all, but they are stiffer then the ARV.
I had no duribility problems with the Jeronimos, I did not rail them that hard (I don't spin on, do big gaps or switch ups), but the skis showed no real damage from the rails I did do. There were no problems with delams either. Basically what you should get from a ski. I did not go and drive over them with a tank or do any real stress tests or anything but they held up to standard skiing. I would say the bases are supper strong though, I nailed some rocks hard once and there was only a small scratch that was not even worth filling, nothing serous.
