yup, did you read the last sentence of my post? can't agree more. There really is no need for overly stiff skis or boots unless you are racing or just into that sort of thing. Technique & finesse. You can go plenty fast on just about any ski. A supershape is the stiffest ski I would ever want. The 84 is pretty soft but has a great feel underfoot and can be carved pretty aggressively. Just not so happy on hard pack. The new Hart ski I am getting should be a fairly stiff ski, sandwich construction made in Italy by Blossom. It should be along the lines of a Head Magnum.  Good long run, GS ripper with ability to play around abit along the edges and such.
