hi everyone, as the title says i don’t want to buy my next pair from a multinational. i’ve done a bit of research and most core skis seem REALLY soft. On3p really appeals to me but my friends who ride them say they’re super heavy and thats turning me off a bit ( is it true????). I like flexing my skis but i prefer doing stylish tech tricks & going big on jumps.

any recommendations, advice or insults are welcome

on3ps are great, definitely not super heavy. they arent the lightest skis, but they arent heavy by any means. youre also going to enjoy having that slight extra weight and stability off of larger jumps

definitely stiffer. I ride 181 Magnus 90s (mangos are relatively similar from what I hear) and they're definitely stiffer than bdogs. Honestly with 90 underfoot they don't weigh me down a ton compared to something like Vishnu Wides which are 106? underfoot i think.
 
Jeffrey 100 and BDOG are the same weight according to their websites at 181/180cm.

vishnus +s or keys, they not multi-national they are culturally inclusive. :)

on3ps do sound so good on landings.
 
American company making skis in China sounds multinational to me

Yes. On3p *thock* is the best ski sound

Moments are dope. You could look at Skevik too- Canadian brand making some beautiful skis. Don't count Js out either.
 
Our Alparka might suit what you’re looking for.

It’s more of a classic park ski at 86mm underfoot, symmetric sidecut, fairly stiff cambered ski underfoot softening to the slightly rockered ends with a ton of rebound from carbon stringers down the length of the ski.

drop me a DM if you’re interested.
 
Season Kins are pretty fun. They are playful but stiff enough not to wash out if you land backseat. Also coming up soon they will probably do an end of season deal.
 
The Deviation Ballistic is my favorite park ski I've ever ridden. Seems to fit your requirements
 
My moment frankenskis are awsome both inside and outside the park and way stiffer than my freinds candide 2.0s and wets idk how they compare to bdog tho
