Hey does anyone know which ski is better, im going to be living in colorado next year so a ski that handles in powder would be nice too. I would make the decision for myself but i havent skied the scratches, so anyone know anything about either ski. Especially how light they are i hate heavy skis. thanks alot

the scratches look heavy to me...I dunno, tanner hall and evan raps say they're the best ski ever made, but Im sure they just got money for that

You mean you've never been?

Maybe wait until next years 1080s come out? Theyre wider and built like the pocket rocket.

Ok, they migt get money for sayin that this on is the best you can get. but how will you find out 'true or not'??? Go out and test `em !!! That will convince you!

hey jamie, can you make that line in your signature a little shorter? it gets really annoying to have to move the window back and forth and back and forth every post.

also, i say scratches. but i'd wait until you can demo them both and be sure for yourself.

I might be able to pick up a pair of the JF's, unfortuantlly not the scratches...

I would say demo is your best bet...

How many of you guys ride the JF's? Have any problems with them?

i've got jf's, and there was a setup of prototype scratches at my hill, i didn't get to ride them, but they're definitely heavier than the jf's. a whole hell of a lot fatter as well, so the tradeoff might be worth it.
