Was thinking about getting the new JP v Julians. I ski primarily at a small East Coast mountain, almost all park but I go out west at least once every year. From what I have read the J vs.J are a great powder ski that can still be ridden on groomers. Has anyone ridden them? Have any thoughts? any alternatives? I was also thinking about the Solomon Lords
 
the jjs are a good ski but they are made for pow not park and if you use them for east cost park all year with the one odd trip out west probaly not a smart ski choice. the lord to would be better but not really a park ski look at some park specific they will do alright in powder to. if you really want some pow performance look at skis like the blends, kung fujas, bridges, pimps, something with a smaller waste so you can still ski east coast park
 
yo, i had the jj's, i just sold them last week. i live in ohio and i really dont suggest getting them. they are a great ski, but not in the east. i learned the hard way. i did use them every year when i went out west and it was sick. they are ok on groomers, but sometime i felt they were kinda slow for some reason (yes i waxed em). look at another ski!

since they are fatter you really need to lean into your turns on the groomers, its a weird sensation.
 
i didnt read that you were looking at the lords. yes get those for sure. they would be good in the park too. someone is selling them new on here too.
