I really need an excuse to get Jeffs. Maybe when I go to college and want a 1 ski quiver or maybe if I go to college where I need a big pow ski I will add Caylors.
What I really like about ON3P is their presence in newschoolers, they aren't just a faceless brand.

Well that's sad haha
Do I want jibby or a charger? Or tour...
Choices. I'm thinking I'll still go with bgs though. Not as interested in jibbing around in the powder. Thoughts on going for tours vs regular bgs? Considering I probably won't tour this year, but possibly in the future. Seems perhaps the tour might be a better powder and tree ski? But not as good in the crud

181 or 186... This is the question.
I'm on the East Coast, these would be my everyday ride. Coming off a non-rocker Prophet 100 in 186. I want something much more agile than that ski was. At 186 with no rocker, it was too much of a freight train in tight trees.
For reference, I found the 184 Sir Francis Bacon to be absolutely perfect length.

Get the 181s, about the same length.
My guess would also be the 181. As mentioned, line measures short and I'm pretty certain the Jeffrey's are measured about dead on, so likely 184 FB = 181 Jeffrey.

are you thinking of a whole new ski or adding RES to the caylor or jeffrey?
I've been thinking about a ski like this a lot actually, would you be able to have RES in the tip and tail without having a wonky tight sidecut underfoot?
for me the perfect do everything ski would be basically wrenegade dimensions with a couple mm shaved off the tip, longer rocker in the tip and tail (twintip), very gradual RES tip, straight or slightly tapered tail, and the tiniest bit softer in the tip and tail.
i aboslutely love my wrenegades but sometimes i like to land backwards too.

Bought the 14/15 ones this year and am so stoked for them, putting dukes on them so I can tour them. Is this a bad decision?
