Hey guys, I am looking to buy a new ski. I am mostly a park skier but still like to ski other type of terrains. I want a ski that is quite flexible but still stable at high speeds. I also want something that is quite wide(about 100).I'm 5"9 and weigh approximately 135. At first I was loooking to buy line blends but after looking at reviews i'm not sure it's a very stable ski. If you guys have any suggestions I would really appreciate.
 
There is a trade-off between flexy and stable at high speeds, for the most part you have to pick one or the other.

A flexy ski isn't going to be stable at high speeds, despite everyone wanting this.

An example of this, the Line Blend vs the Moment PB&J. Very similar dimensions, but the Blend is going to be a lot flexier. This means butters and such (Bunch stuff) is going to be easier on the Blend while hauling ass is going to be easier on the PB&J.

Sure, you can haul ass on the Blend and you can butter / do Bunch stuff on the PB&J, it's just going to be a little more work.
