Going on right now, only at our online store, sale prices offer discounts up to 49% off our regular retail prices. We have limited inventory remaining. The sale ends May 15th, 2012.

I'm 5'8" and 155lbs. Not sure if I should go with the regular 181 or 181lite for the Caylors. I ski tahoe terrain, and ski aggressively, but I wouldn't say I drop huge cliffs, just smaller ones. Any advice from you ON3P guys?

A lot us were leaning towards the Lite. It's a playful ski shape, it just generally seems to be a lot more fun with a playful flex. It also depends on what you're used to.

What are you skiing now? how do you like it?

If you're more into slashing and smearing pow, skiing minigolf and having a playful pow ski, I would go lite. If you're more into skiing really fast and aggressively, get the normal flex.

Caylor, Billy Goat, and Wrenegade will all come in a 191 next season. Are you looking for something narrower?

Skiing Armada JJs and I really like them for untouched pow, they are a dream. But once I get into crud or chopped up pow they are just a chore with that famous hooky feeling that's hard to get used to. And I often go on days after storms and hunt for storms because of college so I encounter a lot of mixed snow conditions when using my pow skis, not just untouched as nice as that would be.

Thinking about pulling the trigger on some wrenegades 190 or some billygoats 186/190. I havent ski a ON3P ski in my life so I'm wondering if someone can enlighten me. I know the basics of both, wrens more directional charger and bg or more powder tuned, but looking for more info.

Wrenegade is for skiing fast, straight down the mountain. They charge hard, and they are stiff. Meant to handle straight lining everything from powder to crud to gnarly windblown stuff... it's for people that like skiing that ski like they are competing in the freeride tour every day.

Less rocker, skinnier, stiff.

The BG is more of a powder / soft snow specific directional ski, it will handle tight spots or trees better, and overall be more playful and easy to ski in soft snow. Definitely still very capable of charging, but it will be more versatile when you're not trying to scare yourself all day.

More rocker in the tips and tails, more taper for ease of powder maneuverability, medium stiff flex.

Does that answer your question?

I'm 5'6" and 155 lbs. I skied the normal caylor and they are by no means too stiff. Definitely stable enough when hauling ass around the mountain. There are some times when I wish they were a little softer, but it's only really when hitting jumps. Normal resort days I'm fine with the normal flex.

next year's Jeronimo is going to be perfect for you. This year's is sick, a little skinnier than 100 udnerfoot though:

Kutcher rides them quite a bit in this edit:

Jeffreys have a more all-mountain flex, it's a good flex for a solid park ski, but not as playful as the softer flex on the FR or Jeronimo.

Are they changing anything for next years Filthy Rich model? Topsheet is pretty similar, so would prefer to pick up this season's if there is no physical alteration.

very little changed. The core profile is a little more fine-tuned, basically to bring it from a 9.5 to a perfect 10, but ultimately the same ski.

Would the 186 jeffrey be to big for me if I'm 5'9 and 140lb? my parks skis now are 176 and I feel like 186 would be huge. Should I wait till next year and get a smaller size?

That'll be big, I'd wait and do a 176 Jeffrey next year, or do a 181 Jeronimo now.

That being said Im skiing 186 jeffrey's now and I'm 5'8 140 lbs. It feels perfect for pretty much anything outside of park, but feels big In the park. I can't do much on them when it comes to rails other then just slides and some surface swaps, However on jumps they are really fun for floated spins.

These prices are the cheapest you'll see, but you can be assured that there's no slippage in quality or any other dimension.

You still get the (personal opinion warning) funnest core build on the market, top notch materials, standout graphics, one of the best factory tunes going, and the anal-retentive perfectionism of skiers with real jobs building skis in America.

Durability wise, I'd say it's cheaper to buy a well constructed ski designed to take abuse rather than two pairs of "cheap" skis adding up to the same amount spent.

The only cheap thing about these is the price.

We stack them in a huge funeral pyre out back and make a sacrifice to the god of winter for a better snow season for our retailers.

But seriously guys, raising prices tomorrow, already sold out of 186 Viciks, 171 Filthy Rich, 171 Caylors, down to our last Jeffreys, Jmo's, 181 Filthy, Caylors... list goes on and the seasons just starting in the Southern Hemisphere for all of our international customers.
