Mango vs jeffrey

[trash_pandaaa5]

yo whats up ns i know there is already a thread about this but im still not completely sure which one to get. Right now im skiing on the volkl revolt 104 but its delaminating which is causing the ski to get super duper soft. I like it for right now but over time i think they will become to soft and im looking to replace them. Im torn between the mango and the jeffrey because i want a soft ski but i charge everything. I feel like the ski would have to be super duper soft for it to cause any issues since i charge everything on my water logged volkls. Is the jefferey to stiff? is the mango to soft? let me know

I weigh 145ish 6,0 ski everything not looking for a super park ski but want something that can do butters and wheelies and all the jibby stuff.

i ride some clapped jeff 96's from 2020 and they hold up awesome. you can charge hard in them, but not crazy soft for butters, etc (also prob bc im not that good at buttering). however, for my use case (mostly park laps, east coast pow days, and some street when it snows) they get the job done and are very durable

Neither ski is soft. It’s the rocker that lets you get into butters. Takes to time to learn but you are rewarded when you figure it out. If you ski more park than all mountain get the mango if it’s the other way around get the Jeff.

100% agree, just want to add to this. The recommended mount point on a mango is much closer to center than the jeff. So if it's a 1 ski quiver, get the jeff and mount it back from center a bit. If it's mostly a park weapon, get the mango and mount it closer to center or center.
