so i was set on getting 179 kung fujas as my main park ski, but now im having second thoughts.
i had invaders last year, and they were the most fun ive ever had skiing on rails and buttering around like crazy. but hitting anything over 40ft, i felt sketchy as hell. so i really want something more jump oriented.

basically im thinking about the kung fujas, ar6, watch life, antidogma, stl and reno jib. and the reno jib is the one i know the least about.
im 5 10 150 and these will be like 95% park, 5% jibbing around runs and stuff.

i want a ski that can take big jumps really well, so something nice and stable. but that i can also butter somewhat easy when i want. coming from invaders, butters is something i cant do without.

so what do you think? whats the reno jib's flex like? or what can i compare it to? ive owned ar5's the white stl's, invaders, silencers, and watch lifes. would it compare to any of those?
 
stiff but not crazy stiff.

stiffer than ar5's i would say. The way the tips are set up makes for easy butter initiation I think. But it wont be as easy as your anthems to butter. Super stable on jumps, any size, and just fun all over.

 
ya reno jibs arent to stiff but im getting them this year i do all park and jibbing. i have the 08 invaders too and i have the same problem they cant take the jumps but relly playful. i was thinking of getting AR6s and stl's to but they r more all mountain i want all park because thats like all i do.
 
stiff might be an over statement playful is more like it with a meduim flex not stiff like a board but not soft by any means
