ON3P SKIS Discussion

[Doremite]

Yeah. Narrow ski long for max stability on low tide hot lap days where the only fun to be had is speed.

(187/192/187)

All mounted up already no less. The kid is beyond ready. Congrats! Should have added the CMs to the pic.

Bindings incoming, then will do!

Three widths - 90, 102 and 110

custom builder says 100, but maybe typo? makes more sense to have 10mm gaps across the line

hah - funny . I try to correct your faulty information, but end up typing something wrong too, so huzzah. We got there in the end though

The original plan was to just post a picture of the custom meny, but decided against it - and managed to type 102 instead of 100. Wopsy.

As someone who has been abusing ON3Ps for the past decade with only one broken pair, this pains me.

[kid-kapow]

WTF? What is the deal? It pains me too.

on a side note; it always annoys me when pros take their perfectly fine skis and go ride grass/gravel/dirt with them aka just destroys them for an asinine clip. I mean, if you have enough skis to do that with a pair why not reconsider if that piece of gopro fotage is worth it. Why not rather consider giving the pair to a worthy mag who can't afford a pair instead? You know, those feel good posts usually gain more traction than those inane dirt shredding clips - they will not make you look like Candide.

Sure, if the skis are bbeyond old, beat to hell, with core shots en masse and a pulled / cracked edge - go ahead, but that doesn't seem to be the case more often than not. And yes, they are your skis so you can do with them as you please, but for me at least - I always end up thinking "what a fucking jackass".

I'm counting at least 6 skis without holes? First 4 from the left and then the red ones.

But I'm looking on a phone and may have missed something.

Do we know the origin of the photo?

Wondering if it's a factory worker with access to blems that aren't sellable?

Blem thought is a good call. Skinny skis make better looking fencing.

I took photo recently. Outside a small ma/pa ski hill in MT. Turns out the owner was a friendly dude who went to high school with one of the founders... Kip I believe... Scott correct me if Im wrong. So Kip would send this guy single one offs, blems, etc... Thought I'd share for a little shock value humor. But man what a beautiful fence.

[cmsummit]

Ooo la la…..my customs recently showed up. 187 Woodsman 110 with 50/50 layup. Dig the flex pattern and love the green sidewalls. I pre-ordered the CAST system today for these sexy beasts. Sliding on snow can’t come soon enough!

Maybe wait a few weeks if you can.. looks like theres a new "mango" line coming out with 100 and 110 widths.. guessing they're similar to jeffs but with a mount closer to center if thats your thing.. im personally pretty hyped.. always wanted an on3p ~110mm with a mount closer to center

Oh interesting. I'm old (44) but have happily been moving to a more centered stance and inching all my mounts closer to -6 or -5, so the Jeff would already be the most centered ski in the quiver

But the goal of this ski is to learn to butter before I turn 45 or the spine injury says stops lol so whatever ski gets me there faster

I'm guessing I'd want to stick with the Jeff for a mix of park days and all mtn drops and side hits? Open to suggestions

I'm in Tahoe so the 110 seems better for softer days but I've already got WC116, GPO, and Qs for anything pow so the 102 might be better for low tide and lower swing weight

[sk8rat6587]

The rocker and flex in the Jeff will allow you to butter for sure while still maintaining some really good all mountain capabilities.

Joined the club! Stock Woodsman Tour 110, 182cm with Hawaiian Alpine topsheets. Now trying to decide if I should spring for ATK Raiders or if I should use the ATK Trofeo I already have.

Nice!

I kinda suspect that those bad boys can be skied harder than they ought to be to able to, so I would go Raider. If you plan on doing massive days with lots of vert for the main part, Trofeos are a good call as well.

Would you go 102 or 110? Will obviously want to practice into softer snow but not looking for more overlap with my 116+ skis

[optics]

IME 110 rarely overlaps with 116+.

You know when you want to be on 116+ and it’s not the same day as 110.

For those of you that have bought customs this year...do they come with a sticker or two? or should I throw a sticker pack in my cart along with the customs?

[Brasso]

Even blems I bought a few years ago had stickers with em. I assume they'll throw in some stickers, but you could ask.

They’ll come with several stickers unless by chance they’re out. I’m on 5 or 6 orders from factory and each one had a handful.

I bought stock BG118s and there were no stickers in the box.

Figured you would have a least gotten a handful of the “Not Customs” sticker of shame =)

I could shoot some your way. Pm me your address if interested

Yeah, I think that’s true for many skiers but I’m actually pretty comfortable on fatter skis. My DD last season was a 116 Wildcat. And the Praxis Quixote at 118 is my fav sticks ever and I’ll pull those out with an inch or two of fresh.

But this will be my first dedicated jib / park days ski so really no idea if the 102 vs 110 ski will be a better fit as up my game there
