What has been your favourite ski to come out the last 5 years?

I'll go first. Revolt 104, it really feels like a full rockered ski at 104 mm. Love it. Hope they make

it the same way for many years.
 
Maybe not the most popular ski but my soul rider 87s, they were really the perfect east coast ski for me I really wish I didn’t sell them. Since the McVeigh post ive actually been looking for another pair

4frnt devastators. Also, even better if you back it up to 10 years and get the OG core Devs in there.

best blend of chargy/pivoty I have ever found, and I have rode a shit ton of skis.
 
2019 ARV 96 is my favorite ski that I've ever had.

Still skiing them, but they're hanging on by a thread. Bdogs are on deck :)
 
For park its the wide plus and its not even close. If you ever ride a pair you wont wanna be on anything else. And thats coming from a guy who’s totally unbiased

i’ve got 183 wets, 5’11 180 fairly intermediate park skier. would you say 183 for wide + or 177?
 
2021 on3p woodsman 102. Feels like my kartels but can handle some more gas. Sweet spot in model years IMO as the new ones feel more towards a wren.

If you like the 183 wets you’ll like the 183 wides. Idk what skis you have rode in the past but the wide plus is still really light and soft.

look into the unleashed 90. Basically took over the soul rider line. Haven't ridden the 90 but I'm on the 98's right now and they're super fun.

From what I’ve heard theyre kinda flimsy dad freeride skis idk.. my soul riders were tanks, I feel like the unleasheds would explode

I’ve been looking at Heritage Labs FR110’s as a possible OG Dev/Sickle reincarnation. Check them out weight/mount/shape seems about right.

Dude no freaking way. Thats awesome

2400g, 25m radius, full rocker. Just barely different dimensions......I think I might be snagging a set.
 
Hands down for me it’s been the Whitewalker! No other ski changed the way I ski and the way I view the mtn like that ski has. The combination of lightweight but powerful and yet very nimble it’s insane, that ski never skis like its 116 on the hard pack and it floats like a ski way wider then 116

i can agree with you on the revolt 104, it is my current ski and is good for everything you can charge with them one run, and then do a bunch of jibs and butters the next run. unfortunalety the kinda fucked up the latest one by making it super stiff and less buttery.

At first I was skeptical because of the stiffness until I could rip through bumps and chop going mach 5 lol

Yeah, also stiffness does not necessarily equal a lack of playfulness. The stiffness allows you to utilize the rocker profile for playfulness while still hooking up and charging. I think that's really part of the magic formula of ON3P
