Yo guys i need a new pow ski to replace my 116jj ul. I really liked it and not sure wheter i should buy the new model, a whitewalker or some new skis.

I dont want some heavy ass skis.

So i just wanted to ask you guys which is your fav pow ski?

thanks
 
I like it more then the 116. But alot softer as well. Too me the 116 is more like a softsnow allmountain ski.
 
Bent 120 for something a bit softer or if you want a beefier, chargier ski a Whitewalker 116. I was really considering the whitewalker but a buddy gave me his old 120's and I have had no complaints. Super fun ski.
 
If your criteria is to be light and playful, I think the best choices would be either the bentchetler 120 or the new arv jjul 116

Why wouldn't you throw either the normal whitewalker or the 121 in there?

never rode them. Cant speak to how good they are.

On paper they look quite good, though it should be noted that they are going to be a good bit stiffer than the JJ's you are coming from.

note the 179 is actuly 183 and the 189 is 193 so maybe it actuly is
 
Just went from Bent 120 to WhiteWalker 116. Def a new favourite ski for me.

WW stiff under foot, but super soft in the tips n tails, suits me way better than the BC120

WW a bit chargier n still feels good when snow isnt fresh

I got a set of Head Bonecrushers still in the plastic in 190cm if you're interested. Big ski though, may be out of the scope of what you're looking for
 
JJ UL if you get surfy and hit drops. Something with a longer turn radius if you don't know how to make turns.
 
Whitewalker 116 is like a more responsive and energetic but less playful JJ ( still plenty playful) black crows anima is really fun, a little on the heavy side but lands cliffs bolts. Rossignol sender free 110 is incredible at charging skied out pow but slightly less fun in fresh powder. QST blank is a dead fish.
 
I got a pair of brand new magic J ULs I’m selling if you’re interested. They’re one of if not the last pair available that I know of,
