Stiffer Skis

Hey everyone. So I've been skiing on some '07/'08 Line Anthems. They're sick skis, but I'm done with the butter-zones, etc. I don't butter much. I also land back-seat, a lot. I'm sure the majority of it is just because of me, but maybe the skis have something to do with that and the way I land.

I do about 70% park, 30% groomers. 50% Jumps, 50% Rails.

So, any suggestions on some stiffer skis? I was thinking either the Chronic or Chronic Cryptonite. I like the idea of having a wider ski (going along with the Anthems), but I don't know the necessity of it. Just from looking around, it seems like most companies offer more flexible skis. I'm having a hard time finding a stiff ski.

Any ideas? Thanks!!
 
It very well could depending on how you pop off a jump? stiffer tails may keep you more level off the lip, whereas you may takeoff to backseat on your current skis? Stiffer ones may help you pop and land more evenly.
 
i have the 08/09 Armada El Reys and thier pretty stiff, Work very well fro all mtn too and i have them mounted -2.
 
That would be totally ridiculous if that was actually a true overall run description of a ski hill. Those rails would have to be like 400 feet long and you would always be catching huge air.
 
the volkl walls r decently stiff, they have a lot of pop and are light enough to dance on rails. definitely what you're looking for. if you want wider, people right the volkl gotama in the park too. basically any volkl ski is decently stiff, from what i've experienced. i own the walls and chopsticks and they stomp
 
That's not a description of one run. My hill is only 250ft, I can barely hit anything twice. That's more of an overall deal.

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I'll definitely be looking into some Walls.
