ON3P SKIS Discussion

I made an acquaintance with a rock couple days ago…

On that note: does anyone know if the blister discount adds up to custom discount?
I need to order soon to get the new skis before christmas.

Aaaaaaannnddddd......


This is why we have rock skis if you must make early season turns

Some more than others

What ski is this? I have a single, older jeffrey or kartel somewhere. I'd have to find it and confirm length/width, but maybe it could help.

Shameless plug, selling my steeple 102s in gear swap. Skis mounted with Plum Guides and with pomoca skins included for $425

Bought some BG118’s last night in a moment of weakness. Got to figure out which BG’s need to go.

Letting go is hard to do.

Haha! Did you go 192?

[Bandit Man]

No. I did the 187’s. Since I already have SuperGoats they appear to be very similar to the BG118 (minus the A-Sym), I let my more practical side prevail.

This will be pair #7, so some quiver re-arranging is due.

Any fellow PNW skiers on the billy goat tour 110 or 118? Thinking about getting something to fill the huge gap in my touring quiver between my dynafit beast 98 and pescados. How does this ski handle deep, warm, grabby snow? Hoping to get something that works well in any soft snow that isn't guaranteed pow.

I’m on the 116 tour. Quite biased towards ON3P, but I truly feel RES shines in PNW crud and funky shit you find touring. The width does make it some work on your legs in that crap though.

7 BGs? Tell me more about your practical side

I will buy one of your sets of 2014 186cm so long as hole conflicts aren't too egregious.

Glad you caught the joke.

Two of the pairs are allocated for my 17-yo…and 2019 184 (his current BG) and a pair of 2014’s 186 I think he would prefer based on his ski style.

My new BG118’s will probably replace my 2018 189’s. That will create more separation between the 193 SG’s.

There is a pair of 191’s that used to belong to TSFKALS that a buddy is lusting over.

My personal 2014 186’s are “cold dead hands” skis.

Ebay, right?

Saw some ON3P's come up in my alerts, but already gone.

Not me. I decided to buy some from Scott directly.

I was vacillating too long on a custom topsheet. Since the stock one looks so good, I just went with that one. Thinking some gold P15’s would work.

I thought you might have picked up these for a second Bandit:

I'm just trying to work my head around the kind of physics that were responsible for an inward compression that severe. Barely any base gouge, and almost always these kind of wrecks are a Inside-outside direction of movement. Please describe the type of shit-eating you went through.

Yeah, these are my early season park skis. Nonetheless, would be sad if I had to see them go. They held up remarkably well.

What ski is this? I have a single, older jeffrey or kartel somewhere. I'd have to find it and confirm length/width, but maybe it could help.

17/18 Kartel 98 in 186cm - I really do appreciate the offer, though, considering I'm located in Europe it might not be worth to ship them here.

Early season glacier days can be rough here (Hintertux, Austria). We didnt get a lot of snow the last couple of weeks so it was mainly scraped off bullet proof ice. On one particular cat track-style connecting slope was a rock exactly in the middle of the 2,5m wide slope. As the only thing we could to with park skis (read: dull edges) is slide the entire thing sideways, I caught and edge on that rock. Hence the exact right angle impact. Not really spectacular but shit I did eat regardless...

[tuco]

I believe it can be repaired. The info to fix it is in the 'Fix your own fucking edge compression' thread.

[Norseman]

Mercer Island... back to the Soul 7s. Or maybe Apache Recons for the Mt Dweebus groombers

[jackattack]

pretty sure it was the phantom glide that got 'em

what's dangerous about a billy goat? pilot error imho.

[sf]

Maybe it's a custom 179 in 2x aeverflex and with the park detune.

That could be pretty dangerous

[adrenalated]

I'm going to be highly disappointed if "a dangerous ski, designed for a younger skier" doesn't appear in ON3P marketing copy at some point.
