They are decently stiff underfoot and a little softer in the tips and tails. I would classify them as a mid stiff.
Pros
They are ABSURDLY light and full of pop and energy. Owned 3 pairs, ski 99% park and have never blown an edge compared to my old rossis which are missing a foot and a half. Real durable
Cons
At 178 they are a little long on turn radius so they'll be a little slow at center mount. That's where I mounted mine and they still slay, just don't expect to be whipping tight carving turns. Bamboo is what makes the ski unbelievably light, but it does lose some energy and rebound over the course of the year. Overall though the benefits of bamboo undoubtedly outweigh the life span...
Good luck wit yo descision

I have the larose pros (predecessor to the LTE) and they are very soft, I find them softer than the anthems I had. The LTE is stiffer underfoot though which is needed as I found them too soft on 30ft+ but then im 6'2.
If 5'10 or smaller i would say go for it they are a great ski for having fun on and they ski great even mounted at centre just dont expect them to be mega stable on larger features.

Yeah thanks and +K to you both! I'm barely 5'9.... I think I'll get the Lte.
Two of my friends are getting the T-hall, so how are the Lte's compared to the T-halls?
And another question, they will get softer when I butter and tail/nose press on them right?
If so thats good because then I can have a midstiff in then later get a soft one!

The t-halls are a similar shape/ dimensions. The LTE's will be lighter, a little stiffer and in my opinion have more pop.
Like any ski it will get a little softer with time. It will more noticeably lose its energy and rebound more so than the flex.
I don't think you need to be worried about hem being too stiff. With the progressive flex pattern they are still easy to butter.

Dude, just buy them already. What else do you need to know?

I don't understand your question about what "will make them worse in the park". They are awesome in the park. They are awesome on groomers, and can handle a little pow as well. I've owned two pairs, so if you have other question, I will be happy to help. You can't go wrong with the LTE. It's a great ski for what you are describing.
