Hey if i had to choose between Atomic Punx, Volkl Walls, or ON3P Blue Steeles which should i go with...what does each ski bring to the table, and which is the better one. Ill be hittin jumps and rails equally. Thanks alot for the help
 
Tough choice, out of the 3 I've only skied the walls, and I pretty much told you about them in your other thread. They are a fun ski, a little stiff, but still fun to ski. 100% symmetrical means they'll rip all over the mountain forward and switch. Extremely durable, I beat the crap out of mine and had nothing but a few minor scratches on the base (easily fixed with some wax) and some very minor topsheet chipping (happens to every ski - especially on the east coast with the ice). I loved mine, the only thing I don't like about the 2010 is the graphic - could be so much better (although I haven't seen them in person yet, so they may be sicker than I think) I like the 08 graphic the best (the green), but that's mostly cause I'm a fan of green.
As far as the ON3P's and the Punx, I don't know much, but I've excellent things about both. Wish I could help more on those.
 
Sure i guess, Walls and Blue Steeles are going to be the most similar, but the obvious choice for me would be ON3P because they are at a ridiculous price right now, the materials are better, and you are supporting a start-up and extremely legit company and crew behind the name. I dont know anything about Punx but im gonna go out on a limb and say they can get nowhere near Blue Steeles and probably Walls because they are a sick ski as well.

Blue steels have a bamboo core, are custom made, and generally better quality since its not a mass produced ski. All are sick, but for the pre sale ON3P price, you can't really beat that
 
my friend has punx true center nad loves them but he said the tails will collapse or something i demoed the walls and they are realy fun good for presses on the magic carpet(just as a joke i dont accaully ski there) get teh schizofonic bindings then you can ski all over the mountain
 
ive got Punxs, epic in the park and on rails with centre mount and all that!!! but they are sooo crap and unstable at speed and crud!! so depends what your up to aye
 
I race with my punx, theyre stable I dont know what that kid is talking about.

(and by race i mean school races)
 
i had punx and absolutly loved em, super playful and just all around fun to ski on def reccomend that forsure
