I am 6"1 and 140 pounds, and have it narrowed between these skis. Basically what I am wondering, is - based on my height and weight, will i be able to butter well on the filthy riches(will they feel playful or stiff), also will the da'nollies hold up on jumps around (50-60ft)
 
Buttering is more dependant on skill level than the ski, but the nose and tail rocker definitely helps on the Filthy. No experience on the Icelantics, sorry.
 
after hand flexing the Da'nollies and seeing people ski them, i would say they can hold up and will be stable. I loved the flex of the da'nollies more than the FR's too

I rode FR's for the past 2 years and can say that they're very easy to butter/very playful. I am going to be riding Icelantics this year and can tell just by flexing the skis that they are a more uniform flex probably due to the full camber,they are a medium stiffness and stiffer than the FR's.
 
I've used filthy riches for most of last year and they do feel a little more stiff, but because of the immense amount of rocker in the tip and tail they butter like a dream while remaining very stable. Love them.
 
still undecided... which ski is better for butters/playin around

also, not expecting either ski to be good in powder, but which would be "better"
