    SG pricing and a few options will be coming to this thread soon.

    We've got a couple things to show the Mag appreciation in regards to the SG things mentioned above so don't fret there.

    As for the Wren 114 talk that's been punched in the nutts by the Supergoat...I think you guys will be surprised in a pleasant way when we are ready to release it.

    It's not the old 113 Wren, it's not the new 108 Wren. It's a ski that takes the best of both of those and adds some new fairy dust we've never done before...maybe.

    Info on the Wren 114 will be released as soon as we make some final minute decisions. But rest assured, it's coming.
    You should have been here yesterday!

    191 is very capable. I want this because I am 215lbs butt-naked. I have a 315mm boot as well, so you can try mine out at BBI Big Sky.

    I do not expect it to be less expensive at retail than the 189 BG, but I'm certainly hoping that it's not significantly more.
    I'm not sure people are fully comprehending that this is pretty much a custom ski. It's not as simple as just adding a few cms to the length. You can use the custom ski builder to get an idea of the range of costs this can add up to. Additionally building custom skis takes extra time and it's time not being spent building skis for stock. I have no idea where this ski will be priced but I imagine it will be as reasonable as possible while still being financial viable for ON3P.

    They engineered and made this ski for their FWT athlete, so ON3P isn't doing all that extra work just for the group buy. They've already sunk those costs into the ski. IMO by providing it to the public they might be able to recoup some of the sunk costs of making the ski in the first place (as long as people buy the ski).

    Looking at my skis this morning I noticed what I took to be a de lam just in front of the toe on my new wren 108s. Now i think the core is compromised, definitely flexs more on a particular spot. Had to go in and switch skis asap because it didn't feel right to ski. I don't recall a particular incident that would of caused it and am pretty bummed because build quality alone would have me raving. Looking to get same again if it's a warranty thing otherwise it's hard to justify despite the nice shape

    I somewhat disagree. I would agree with you if we all wanted a different top sheet and green sidewalls. To my knowledge, no one is making bespoke requests. On the other hand, manufacturing a small quantity of something is less efficient and more expensive.

    I'll leave it at that until more specific details, including pricing, are made available, other than to say, no one expects something for nothing-- well, except, maybe Leavenworth skier.


    Edit-
    Shut yer hole NWSKIER you'd be in on this too if you had the goat balls to handle it.

    You can go to the warranty section on our website and fill out an application.

    https://shop.on3pskis.com/pages/warranty

    Also, shoot me an email at jay@on3pskis.com and we can take a look at it for you.

    We RARELY have warranty issues, but if it is one we will gladly rectify the situation for you.
    You should have been here yesterday!

    I'm saying it's fucking stupid you guys are all arguing. Powtron says it's gonna happen. If you want them, you'll buy them. Who gives a shit what they cost.

    P.S. I don't need a 193 because I'm in shape.

    As is the case with almost any company, best bet is to reach out to us directly with whatever issues you have. Hard for us to do much for warranty issues through the forums.

    The warranty page of our website has a form you can fill out that will include all the initial info we need. Best bet is to start there first. Once we get that filled out we'll let you know what we can do. Hope that helps. Thanks!

    You guys are being ridiculous. You asked for this ski to be made. Now you're getting it. You'll pay what they want or piss off. It's pretty black and white.

    I imagine it will be rad as shit. I'm stoked that on3p is doing it. They rock! Leave it at that.

    Dude, it's summer time. Of course we're going to be arguing and bitching about stuff. That's what we do to pass the time.

    And FIFY. 😂

    You don't need this ski 'cause you tiny bro. That's not a knock on you, just reality. I'm in great shape and weigh in at 195lbs and not sure I would need this ski. Not worried about the length as one of my favorite skis is the 191 Lhasa Fat which is pretty damn stiff, not sure if splat beefed it up since it was his personal ski and he's a fairly big guy. I want to ski the super goat though. It sounds awesome. Who knows, I may ski it and go "fuck me I'm buying this!" Not really sure though as the resorts I mainly ski at aren't big open spaces where a ski like this would really shine.

    Exactly. In fact, I don't think they made this ski to ever hit production, so I would think any ski sold would be a +

    This too! Bitch about them not making skis(for inventory) they can't sell, they offer a one off and the bitching continues. That being said, I could see a discount for a group buy for skis that will never hit inventory. In the end its all about ON3P making a little cake while making a ski you can't just buy, cuz they don't owe any of us shit!
    People probably owe a little thanks to Pinkpolezboi/vailseszendrei/aveergreene/betelguese for his continued bitching about longer BG's that may have kickstarted this too!
    My interest is definitely piqued! Waiting for more info on specs. I'm not real big on pintail skis and 17mm's difference tip/tail is huge and I don't really view 116 underfoot as a powder only ski!
    What I really want to hear about is the Wren 114! Still kicking my self in the ass for selling the pair I had Scott build for me, BIG mistake!
    Powtron or Iggy, could you give details on this ski around the same time as the SG for people on the fence?

    I was giving Kai shit. I know full well I don't have the size to drive that ski. The bickering about the price had me riled up.

    Understandable. It makes me shake my head as well.
