A quick size question for you on3p geeks

[h.yfoskett]

so im looking to order some newskiis in the next few weeks and i'm really tempted to get the on3p blue steel, looks like such a sick ski. anyway im 5'9 and weigh 140lb im about 50-50 rails and jumps, just wondering if i'd be better off with the 171 or 181. i think i was swaying to the 181 for stabability landing switch on big hits, cheers guys

[Yung_Gnarley]

181 for sure

 

[BerGNARdo]

if someone his size is supposed to be on a 181 what is someone alot bigger than him supposed to ride?

 

[arandomname]

181. And to the person above me, good point. ON3P should make 191s for those bigger people.

 

[teleak]

that's enormous for a park ski.

[DUKES]

well if your 6'4"+ it would be the most legit park ski

 

[jeremy.g]

the ski of my dreams - a 186 or 188 ski identical to the blue steele. maybe a company will make it. cough cough on3p do it!

 

[DUKES]

a 191 bs and jmo would make me jizz

 

[RudyGarmisch]

We have this discussion every year, haha. If you guys really want a 191 park ski, and I mean a real 191cm measured from tip to tip, with rocker, we can make it. Minimum order on supplies is about 25 pairs, so if I get 25 emails asking for a 191, we'll do it.

I have to say already though, it'll likely be a 191 Jmo over a 191 Blue Steele...

 

[DHogg]

A 191 J-mo makes perfect sense as its made for skiing all over, and you'll likely ski it in places where you often need the extra length. Blue steel less so, since its a pure park ski, but i know people who have issues finding a long enough park ski.

 

[Dustin.]

Ya but if you're big enough to need a 191 park ski, you probably want the extra beef that comes with a J-mo anyway.

193 ostness dragon.

 

[h.yfoskett]

cool cheers everybody im defaintley going for the 181's got to wait 3 weeks till i order though ggayyyy

 

[DUKES]

you just need 24 more cause this tall fucker is lookin for a bangin ski

 

[LC.]

I'd buy it in a 191 if it wasn't rockered.

 

[RudyGarmisch]

I think our park ski for next year will continue to use rocker in some form...

 

[Balto]

why? there is no reason for park skis to not be rockered. they can be just as stable on big jumps, but much more playful at the same time

 

[Killa_BeeKnees]

....slightly unrelated to thread, but any idea when the jmos will be shipped?
