I'm stuck in between getting the kartels, magnus pros and allplays. I'd like to know which out of the 3 is the flexiest and easiest to butter and which one is the most durable. I ski mostly park and some pow and I'd like a ski that would somewhat versatile. Thanks in advance.
 
I've never ridden the allplay but as for ON3P the magnus will be more flexy than the kartel and the kartel will be more versatile.

As far as durability goes I've had filthy riches for 3 seasons now and no foreseeable issues. I ski mostly park thanks to the east coast, but I like to get out into pow when I can.

I'd personally go Kartel
 
J Skis are soft, but stupid soft from what I hear. Not super versatile with all that flex. Not super durable, and pretty expensive for what you get.

Kartels are just amazing.

Magnus are great too. Both super durable.

I mean, the Kartel is gonna be more versatile, but the Magnus will be a little bit more flex. You'll be stoked either way, but if you're riding mostly park then I think the Magnus is the way to go.
 
ON3P master race. I skied the magnus on a slushy spring day all over bridger bowl last season and they were insanely fun and handled some sketchy all mountain skiing surprisingly well but i'm sure they would fall short in any sort of deeper pow. The kartel 98 would be a bit more versatile and capable on the deep days with only a minor sacrifice in park performance.
 
Own the Allplays. Bought them for all mountain/pow use for the EC and thought they were too soft from hand flexing so I almost sold them. Took them out 1 day on a pow day and I'm happy I kept them. They feel soft, but they were charging as Hard as I could push them. for how small the hill was. The soft flex in the nose and tail are great for buttering.

Used them this past weekend at Bush in the deep slush and I don't think ive ever used a better spring ski. Handled everything amazingly. Hit a few blind drops that ended up with me landing directly on rocks and the bases were fine. I was really surprised but they held up super well. Only regret was getting 177 instead of 184.

Clicked into some Kartels and the flex was boring for me.

Never seen the Magnus in person.
 
I can only talk for the ON3Ps. Super durable and super stabil. Magnus is super fast. You can move your feet like a dancer. Spin fast and turn fast. You can still go really big and charge all over the hill. They are soft but not super soft, if you like really soft skis I recommend that you get a pair of softer custom Magnus. Kartels are pretty similar but just bigger and more chargy. Wider, Slower turning radius and a tiny bit stiffer. Love both of them!

are the magnus's still playful and easier to do butters or do you think they are too stiff for that

This is a video of magnus skiing his pro model this year. He definitely shows the flex of the skis in this.
