No worries I know you’re super busy.
Love the new graphics. Especially the TI series. Can’t wait to see those in person.

Man, you guys have done it again Iggy.
A daemon eating a man was a classy move for sure for going full on evil graphics Jessies/Magnus/Jeffreys look like they will have one helluva on-snow presence. I am guessing the colors will pop like crazy.
And to whoever bought the 179 BG/BGtours blem skis - thank you You saved me from impulse buying wren-ti-s as well The inevitable conclusion over obsessing which width to get would have just resulted in me getting both. Can't wait for people to start getting on the new ti wrens and providing feedback. PowTron seems to have gotten along with his pretty well
Can't wait for more info on Woodsmans as well.
Also, ON3P 5 cannot come soon enough too. Considering the current list of back country magicians you have riding for you, that one should be an instant hit 4 was kinda interesting, if not 100% relatable

Hey Iggy,
About that post on the ON3P Instagram regarding bringing out some more throwback top sheets, will it be like at the end of the season again or when were you thinking?

Have an inquiry in on some blemished Wrens but shit.... kinda want a 114 woodsman...
a positive attitude will not solve all of your problems, but it may annoy enough people to make it worth the effort

Wait— a wren 108 ti? Titanal? Can you elaborate?

oh my - so fresh and so clean! The Woodsman has arrived in style!
Can't wait for the specs. The coloring had me confused there for a micro second too
Gaijin - yes, ti as in titanal. The plate is recessed into the core to offset stiffness, meaning they are not "just" a regular wren + titanal, they are specifically engineered for titanal with comparable stiffness to stock (if i understood it correctly). According to PowTron minds have been blown over the performance of ON3P's traditional layup + titanal. Edge hold is supposedly very, very good (duh) while retaining the traditional performance of ON3Ps that we know and love. Other than that not much is known as far as I know. I guess all will be made known over the next week
Especially wren96ti really get me excited. A narrow shape that slays fresh and variable, but with improved edge grip and + on the damp scale? Sign me up! That just begs the question though - mount my standard 96 wrens, or sell those and get me some ti's instead?
The other big cononudrum is what to do with my k108/k116s. Remount a bit further back (#Iggyspoison), or leave as is? Decisions decisions. They will both stay on for the 2020 ski season though I think. Yeah, I am pretty sure.
I always thought that improving on the 2019 range was a tall order, but Iggy&crew seem to have pulled it off yet again! I am not sure if wrens with titanal gets me the most excited, or Woodsmans. I've said so before, but these are fine days to be an ON3P fanboyLast edited by kid-kapow; 04-20-2019 at 06:01 AM.

Haa no idea. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Without seeing the rocker profile, the numbers and shape looks like it'd good in that width as well

I really like it when the details and references in the graphics become apparent. If you check ON3P's insta one can see that the pattern on the new Jeffreys are stylized B-52s or some such, a pretty clear reference to the cloudy Jeffrey 114/122s. Classy. Their on snow presence with tectured top sheets must be pretty amazing imo.
Snicker For now my conclusion is to remount my k116s minus two, or 1.5, and leave my k108s as is for now. The k108s might transition into a purer freestyle / glacier role in my quiver, so on the line should be fine if so. If they will retain an all mountain daily driver status then minus two is prob the way to go for them as well.

Iggy. When can we buy the woodsman? Congrats on 10 years and here’s to 10 more. What Woodsman length will be more comparable to the 189 BG in terms of maneuverability- 187 or 192?
Go Sox!

I donno... a 186/96 woodsman or possibly a w96ti as an ec dd. I think both these skis in a variety of widths are going to cut a wide swath across skier ability/style/technique and snow conditions in the marketplace... Bravo on3p
Could fit in where I was about to drop a dynastarx96/88 for next year's quiver. Being on the substantially same core assembly within the quiver could pay forward. Both skis would fill the softer condition ec/dd and cover hard crude bustin/old snow big mtn quiver slotsLast edited by Gepeto; 04-20-2019 at 07:20 PM.
I am not in your hurry

Damn! Not a bad problem to have if thatd be your DD. Really liking everything about these woodsmans so far. I'm envisioning their splay and rocker somewhere between the bg and Jefferies.

good eye, i like the bomb graphic as well. very...dr. strangelove...
i'm on board for -2 myself. lord knows i waffled enough early on and finally mounted at rec. my plan is to get the woodsman and compare rocker/sidecut/mount point. prolly go rec on the woodsman which should go to my dd slot and move the K108 to my pedestrian/low tide slot that my wren 98's had

I skied the Wren 108 TI. It does have really good edge hold on hardpack and it is probably the most damp ski I have ever skied. The day I skied it, it snowed 3 inches on top of refrozen hardpark. It handled transitions from refrozen crap to pockets of fresh snow very well. It also worked fairly well in moguls for how stable it is. If I was forced to have only one ski this would most likely be it.
One negative to the ski, is it may be too damp. It is less lively than either my wren 114 or bodacious.

Ability to purchase early next week. First production batches start up late next week, so shipping will be around mid May on 182/187, a bit later on 177/192.
10 year really comes in late May, but figured we'd start rolling it out in some capacity now. Gone by fast though.
Length wise vs the BG I would size up (guys skiing a 184cm BG would likely want to be on a 187cm Woodsman, 189cm BG on the 192cm Woodsman).
No timeline right now. We just made about 50 pairs with throwback tops (a lot of which are gone, but some still left).
We've considering maybe bringing back our favorite individual topsheet per season, as a custom option, but we're also a bit concerned right now on just having too many choices - particularly with some new customs tops rolling out soon. We might be de-listing some of the less popular current options, along with adding an input section, just so that we can keep the page more manageable for people. We'll see.Seriously, this can’t turn into yet another ON3P thread....
