So I want to support a smaller ski brand next year and i was thinking of getting either ON3P, Vishnu, or Jskis. I ski in Ontario and mostly do rails but want to get better at jumps next year...which company should i buy from and why?
 
J skis are pretty soft for jumps. I noticed a massive difference in my jumping ability when I switched from J Skis to ON3P.

I have no knowledge of Vishnu, but ON3P skis are really great and they will change the way you ski for the better
 
I personally support small brands too. Some of my favorites are Armada or K2 or even this obsolete brand in the freeskiing community called Line (pronounced Lee-ney).

But out of the options you put up I'd go for some ON3P's
 
How do on3p's compare to a soft jib ski? I have some very soft skis that might be hurting me on jumps but I'm having a hard time convincing myself to make the switch

They are pretty stiff but still flex enough to tail press and nose butter. They kill it on the groomers and they are much better at plowing through cruddy snow. They are honestly the Cadillac of skis.

Revision skis are awesome! Don't own any but my friend let me ride his for a couple of hours. I've riden Js before but I don't like them as much. I don't have any expiriance with those other skis named tho.
 
RIOT SKIS.. a small Japanese Freeski company who makes some of the most durable and buttery ski's out. Shoot me a DM and i'll get you set up!

Over-Priced and poor quality?

I guess you haven't heard that phrase before. Caddies were the cars to have once upon a time. Not anymore, but they were the coolest cars to have in the 50's-60's
 
Boys, Boys.... I meant that that's a bad comparison because Cadillac's are over-priced and made out of inferior quality materials. No need to be so uptight. I'm sorry you thought I insulted your holy shrine.

I dig em, but why so short? They need a 185 or longer, or at least a 180.
 
Kitten factory has a pretty good pair of park skis. Their edges are pretty fat so they're good on rails and they're also medium-stiff flex so they're good for jumps. They have a pretty good amount of rocker and taper so they are very easy to butter and flex. Not the poppiest skis but just enough to get the job done.

We have 178 ,180 and a 184, site just hasn't been updated with next years line yet!
 
Ok so I think I'm gonna stick with my original go-to (ON3P), does anyone know when the 2017 line comes out?

I know. :)

Also for anyone saying J skis suck, they're wrong. I've been riding the Whipits for two years now and love the ski. Yes, its a park ski, but its not as soft as everyone is making it out to be. I really like something that is springy and a bit softer, but not so soft that its a noodle. These aren't noodles by any means.

You gotta find the ski company that fits for you. Everyone makes awesome skis, it depends on what you want.
 
Get on3ps man, they are the shit...

J skis are overpriced and pretty shitty.

Never heard of Vishnu.
