On a powered ski it feels the same like any binding. If you are going to be working on butters, etc. you might notice a little difference under foot, but not much. The ski will have more influence on that than the binding.

It depends on how stiff your skis are to begin with. I have them on my Line Influence 115s, and have not noticed any change in the stiffness underfoot. However, with a softer, more playful ski it could be noticeable.
