ON3P Filthy Rich Flex vs. Jeronimo Flex

No they are not too stiff for a park ski.

I ride them as my main park ski as well as many others on here. They do great for me. Sometimes I wish I had a lighter smaller ski but then again having a wide ski has its perks as well.

 
I rock my Jmos in the park all the time, they're really fun. They are stiffer than than the FRs, but not too stiff for park. They'll also break in a bit (or you can break them in on purpose) and become a bit softer. There is a ton of rocker on them as well, which makes them feel softer than they actually are when pressing and buttering.
 
well what is the ratio of how much you're actually in the park vs. all mtn? if you're looking for a primarily park ski, go with the FR (ie. anything 70/30 park/allmtn or higher). if you're less than 70% park then go with the jmo.
 
Do you have any kind of powder where you ski? If so, how much and do you already have skis dedicated for powder?

It kinda seems like you want us to say "just get FRs" to justify not getting Jmos, and honestly you can go either way. If you want to do a lot of switch-ups on rails and big spins on jumps, get FRs, if you're looking to do more surface swaps and presses and floaty slow spins on jumps get Jmos. However, if you do get some powder every now and then and don't have skis dedicated for them, you'll be really happy with the Jmos on those occasions.
 
Yes, but they're still slightly stiffer than the FRs (since they both have the same amount of rocker and the FRs are designed softer), but it does feel a bit softer in the tip and tail than a cambered or less rockered ski with the same flex.
 
Yeah I live in UT, so there will be a good amount of powder. The thing is there's enough pow to where I may just want to get a dedicated pow ski, in which case i'd just get the FR as my park ski and skip the middle man, which seems to be the Jmo
