Line prophete 130 vs Lotus 120 190cm flex3

Anyone done a head to head on theese mothers? For me...if it wasn´t for the money issue it would be a cointoss. So some input on both skis...even better would be a head to head.

If it's a coin toss or better in favor of the Prophet, then the decision should be a no brainer for you.

but it isn´t a no brainer..that´s why I´m asking.

18m sidecut on the Prophet is way turny. Seeems crazy for a big powder big mountain board.
155 / 130 / 148mm

Lotus 120 46m radius in 190 length.
Lotus is also a true pintail design at 140/120/125mm

I have been on neither, but am expecting to be on the Lotus 120 this winter.
Would love to hear more feedback here.

if U think 18m radius on a pair of big skis is sick U should look up www.hendryxskis.se . It´s a fairly new brand. Handcrafted skis straight outa sthlm! The skis are so surfy it´s a fuckin joke! Suuuper carvy too!

I have not ridden either of these skis. That being said, from what I know they are not very similar. They may have silmilar shape, but they will ski very differently. The lotus will charge. The flex 3 is a stiff ski (notch down from Bsquad) with large radius. They will be rock solid, but will require you to be "on it". Line's are softer. They are a BC jib ski. You can rip on them too.....but they will have a different style. perhaps (price aside) base this descision on how fast you ski.

I have PM-ing with you on this for a few days now...are you the type of person who hears something you don't want to hear, then moves along till you get somone to agree with you????

DUDE...they are very different skis...

The 130 is softer, but it is NOT a BC jib ski...it is VERY far from it. The Bacon or EP Pro is, but NOT the 130...it still charges, and it is a great ski (yes I own them...

)
