no, the jp's come in 178 and 188 and have a softer flex while the ants come in a 191 with a stiffer felx, more orientated for charging

jj's are neet, I have a pair in 178. Theyre good for jibbing anything and are super snappy. They rip everything I think. Never tried the Ants, but I hear good things. If youre bigger and rip super gnarly lines all day the Ant could be great. if not, JJs bra!

do a serach on JP Vs. Julien.  They are a very straight ski...I was looking at them and a few others and eventually choose Bacons for a more fun ski rather than a ski I'll be doing hard charging on.
