ON3P vs Bluehouse

Been outta the loop for awhile and need some new skis for this season. I've been riding my old Rossingol S2's for about 3 seasons now and on my last day last year they finally gave in and my heel piece ripped out. I loved the ski with a passion, perfect flex for my size (5 8' 145ish) with good control that got me around on the ice coast. Anywho I was looking into the ON3P Filthy Rich or either Bluehouse Antics or the MR I know both companies make quality skis but just wanted to know some more about how the flex feels overall and just some comparisons if anyone has ridden both.
 
my antics have lasted 2 seasons and ive beat the shit out if them. such even flex pattern and all around a sick ski to shred the park! and for 375$ you can't go wrong (they ship straight from the warehouse to save you $$$)
 
Meh zero fucks given. They have legit as fuck customer service, mine have help up great over the years, price is on point, and they are a sick skis.
 
Over the years? You said you've used them for 2 seasons. That's not much at all. My 4frnt VCTs are still kicking after 6, and my Public Enemys are 9 years old.
 
Not saying 2 years is bed, but all skis should last that long anyways. I'm glad they've treated you well though, but I wouldn't get skis made in China. Enough of my stuff is made there (or in a similar geographical location).
 
I along with 90% of the people responding to this thread - have only owned one of the brands.

I have a pair of Bluehouse Antics that have been around for their 3rd season now. I've owned three other park skis along side them - which have all been retired/snapped. I am extremely happy with the antics - they have a TON of pop and the edges have held up extremely well. I will continue to use these skis till they completely die.

I have no input on on3p, however, seems as though majority of NS roots for them.
 
If you didnt know, a lot of big brand skis are made in china and are in similar geographical location. Bluehouse skis are made in the same factories as big name skis and use the same quality control and materials so just because they are made in china doesn't mean shit.
 
If you didn't know a lot of big brand ski company's are putting cheap, sub par gear on the market to create higher profit margins. They accomplish this by moving ski factory's to place like southeast aisa where people are just trying to live and will take any job and super low wages. While you get a brand new skis cheap (like Bluehouse) the ski may last only a few years cause you have workers who don't give a fuck.
 
Dont believe in China? What'd you type this response on? Phone/Laptop/Desktop - guaranteed to have parts made in China. Something like 88.5% of consumer goods have been made in china/parts made in china. Get real.

Anyone who says skis made in China are less durable are just looking for reasons to bash another company. You can say the ON3P is way more durable all you want, but I would put money that they have an comparable warranty claim percentage to other companies. You just hear about durability issues with skis from China because there are FAR more of them produced.
 
I am well aware of this. Volkl, K2/Line/Karhu, and BD are others. That's a reason why I have purchased my last 2 pairs of skis from ON3P.

That was my point, though...enough of my gear is made there so I don't want my skis to be.

And yes, I waited almost an hour to post that, haha.
 
from what i have experienced, i have destroyed Lines, Heads, and Volkls. each of which was within a season or 2. Ive had me on3ps for going on 3 years now and have literally beat the shit out of them. and they still look a thousand times better than my anthems that lasted all of 20 days. and they still maintain they original flex pattern and have yet to become soft.
 
look, if you are going to ski park, and you actually try to progress and ski hard, then a pair of quality skis will only last you about 2-3 years, depending on how hard you specifically ski on them and how you treat them. I have read endless reviews and comments on Bluehouse as an excellent ski company. There is quality in the product for the mostpart, but every company has issues, that is why there is a warranty. Just look at Salomon, they have fabulous skis for carving and powder, but their park skis have issues. Some people love them, but everyone says that they have bad durabilty. If you enjoy the ski and you aren't afraid to ski it to its potential, then you are waisting it.The Bluehouse skis themselves I have heard nothing but amazing comments about. Everybody loves them, but they do say that they aren't the most durable skis out there, while I have heard that some skis have lasted 3 years while still holding strong. You can be as pissy as you want to be, but if Bluehouse produces skis that have won editors picks and ski magazine official selection and powder mag awards, then I think it is safe to say that they dont suck and you are just biast.
