Hey all,

I was hoping someone could inform me on whether the B-Dog is TOO flexy, so much so that I wouldn't be able to get landings (Say I'm a Slopestyle competitor and I want a reliable ski). Someone who has ridden the ski please help.

Hope All is well.
 
bump, i also want to know

and OP when i was in a store and i tried to flex them they didnt actually seem to flexy but idk i wasnt riding them
 
No they are not too flexy. I had the halo 2 last year which is pretty much the same ski.

They have a lot of pop and the flex is a good softer medium, not stiff but not too soft.

The alpha x will be stiffer though
 
Actually, I have another question.

I had a friend with Halo 2's and he broke them (Keep in mind, this kids also sketchy asf and it could just be him). But is this ski durable or does it break easily?

as a slopestyle skier, I would say (after using a pair of Halo 2's from my friend) that they were very very dead feeling. The felt insanely sluggish, no pop, and just not a lively ski overall. I didn't like them at all... until I tried them on rails. sick skis for rails as they are plenty flexible. I would say the flex will easily let you hit 40 footers without a problem. If you are looking for a ski that doesnt feel like a piece of cardboard, then look elsewhere. Im sorry to the Armada fans, but these skis had no pop at all. I will admit I only buy skis that have mad pop, but even if I am used to a ton of pop, I didn't get anything from the Halo 2's. they were however livelier than K2 skis so if you have K2's they will feel great. great skis, but it depends on your preferences for characteristics for these sticks
 
^ I don't agree with the no pop thing

I thought that my halo 2s had a decent pop to them. If you like rails then this ski is choice (like stated above).

I hit 60 footers and felt fine with stability.

The way they ski is not traditional, they have a tight turn radius and they are very surfy. Carving is something they aren't the best at.

I do know that you will be happy skiing them once you try them for a couple of days...
 
Skied the b-dog for about 25 days, and it's 30% softer then Halo 2. It has a lot of pop and is basically awesome! But if you're more of a slopestyle competitor i would go AR7
 
Love my BDOGS. They're fun as hell and have had no durability issues. Edges and base hold up very well to park abuse. Also dont agree with the no pop statement. They have plenty of pop.
