Hi, I'm 6'3 170 pounds and im looking for real soft skis. I'm looking to use them mostly for butters and rails. I am looking into the alpha 1's but with the rocker i feel like they will feel really short. Anybody have any suggestions?
 
ok does anybody know anything about the atomic punx? i heard they were soft and have a 186 length
 
I am 6'3" and 190 lbs. I ride the Dynastar 6th sense 'distorter'. It is slightly stiffer, but with the use of spring blade construction the further out on the tips you get the more buttery they feel. Great skis. will be purchasing a new pair this fall.
I was at the OnSnow demo after SIA in Winter Park and found that the K2 Revival was not a bad ski either. The 179 runs long and is super playful. Slight rocker in the tip w/ no camber underfoot made them super playful.
You might also check these out.- Armada T-Hall 181 (they have butter zones built into flex pattern)-Volkl Ledge 185 (they are more of an intermediate level ski, which means it will be quite a bit softer)
 
Atomic patent is a softer wider vesion of the punx, I had the 185's and they were good for me (6"01 190lbs)
 
189 Hellbents or Line EP Pros.

They're long, soft, and buttery... just don't ever use them for park, or your real life karma will bite you in the ass. For examples of presses and butters in powder, watch the Hunting Yeti webisodes, and any of Nimbus's other stuff.
 
ya i already have my big mountain skis im looking for a park specific ski, looking at the punx or urban punx or alpha 1's
