    Need help finding a ski, specific criteria...

    G'day peoples,

    I'm looking for something kinda specific here..

    -Full camber twin-tip (closer to symmetrical the better, and minimal or no early rise)

    -185 to 190

    -mid 90's under foot

    -really playful sidecut (17 to 20m)

    - Stiffness should be middle-ground between a Line sir francis bacon/Blend and 4frnt renegade. I know there's plenty of park skis that fit most of this criteria, but thery're too soft.

    Does this ski exist? Thanks!

    First thing that comes to mind is a Slicer/some old Trouble, but it's probably 24m, and for all I know has rocker now. Gonna be stiffer than a Blend tho.

    I don't think this ski exists, at least not any more. Newschoolers may know of something obscure.
    All of the older, full camber park skis that weren't noodles (i.e., comp or pipe skis) were closer to mid eighties underfoot and usually were low twenties in radius in the big kid size.

    Sounds like the op is describing the Kastle xx west series from a few years ago.
