06-07 Dynastar Troublemakers 165:
Pros:
fairly poppy
stable at high speeds
rip on groomers
great durability (20 days on them, no chipping or delam or anything)
Cons:
wayyy to narrow (78mm underfoot)
tip and tail height not equal (tail is pretty low, even for a park ski)
a little too stiff for my liking (I'm 5'4'', 120lbs)

I have 07 Atomoic Thugs at 181
and all I have to say is this, "Props"
Best ski I've ever ridden, nice and fat(140-120-133)Very soft(I like them soft), great for switch, they charge, good stuff.
I love the ski so much, that it's going to be my next ski.
The downside to them is:
The topsheet, I've really bunged them up.
And turning at high speeds, I find that you need to make really wide turns.
My 07 Line Prophet 90's are great. Haven't used them much this year.
The ski kills though, great for skiing everywhere and tricking it up.
The downside in my view is that it's to stiff and too skinny

Line Chronic Blends in a 172 (taller than me):
I have come to like their stiffness. After skiing them, soft skis don't feel right for everything except jibbing small stuff. It just feels so right to land on something stiff. They topsheet is chipping a bit but whatever. Its a heavy ski though. Oh and the edges are doing good.
