im looking for a new powder ski, something softer, im thinking like ep pro/hellbent soft. over about 115 waist. preferably no camber under foot. basically looking for a soft playful backcountry jib ski, i cant really think of anything other than hellbents. which im considering, just wanna see what other options are out there.
 
line opus

such a sick ski, you'll love it in fresh and on the hard stuff. It's a tad stiffer than the ep's of the past, at least i've been told, i havent skied those, but not stiff by any means
 
Umm, no where close to as stiff as my on3p wrens or gs skis...

sorry, those are my other skis

i'd say softer than chetlers, atomic blog, rocker 2, seths, those were all other skis i demoed the same day
 
definitely not a stiff ski. stiffer than my old hellbents, but not as stiff as my 192 chetlers. its got a good flex, but isnt floppy at all.
 
wow the ghost chant looks awesome. keep in mind ill be doing a bit of park with whatever i get, so i wanna consider that too. ive got park skis, so really i just want it to be big, lots of rocker, and soft. cause from my experience on skis like that its extremely fun for just fucking around in the park. im considering the bacons for this reason, but i almost think it would be too narrow even for park for what im looking at. i know it sounds weird, but i dont want it to perform like a park ski..

anyway, im thinking opus, ghost chant, and bacon at the moment.
 
4FRNT CRJ - jibby as hell and you can press it out anywhere. I have sessioned mine in the park as well and the camber underfoot really holds up well.

i personally hated the ghost chant when i rode them, the rocker profile is absurd for anything other than less than 8"+
 
yeah the last model that they made of the EPs was sick. it was soft but it had a good amount of pop and it might be the most playful ski i have skied on.
 
As a few others have said already. Some great skis to look into are

Moment Ghost Chant

4frnt YLE

Amplid Lexington

some great skis that have camber underfoot, but are still super fun softer pow skis

Line Opus and Bacon

Atomic Bentchetler
 
Which i assume he's looking for... ^ the skis mentioned above will all be fun (Although I don't know anything about the amplids) yle's are really fun skis. Heard really great things about ghost chants in pow, I'd also look at the night train as tip and tail are crazy soft and the center will be stiff.
