Does each ski have a corresponding veneer? Or are there a few to pick from/random?

There are a couple of different veneer types, then they got to select dark on light or light on dark and the level of weathering. The branding is different for each ski and was pretty much determined by what Trevor L. wanted to do that day.

We've done some crazier stuff for a couple of our interns as well...

The veneer is by far the sickest thing to happen to ski top sheets.

yes but not sure exactly how yet. They take quite awhile to prep and finish so not something we plan on doing a ton.

You guys hinted several times about the possibility of a stiff, camber ski in next years line up. Could that be a ski that would replace the jmo? If someone is really considering all mountain performance with jumping and some park roots, I assume they would tend to go towards Jeffrey.

Eliminate the JMO, replace it with a full camber, symmetrical twin with dimensions similar to the FR? Could be sweet. Just speculating!

You're getting close. But I doubt the JMO will go away, it's a really good ski - we all love it.

Or just add another ski, IMO this would be the most logical thing to do because from what I hear the JMO is very well liked.

veneer top sheet looks AMAZING! If only I had the funds to buy a pair and hang them in my living room as decoration.

Got my 12/13 Caylors mounted up last week. Can't wait for more snow to start flying so I can get my first pow laps on these beauties. Also I want to say a huge thanks to Scott, Rowen and everyone else involved in every step of the design/production of ON3P products. This is my first year as a customer and despite having a few concerns before buying, the staff at ON3P were swift and efficient in answering any questions or concerns I shared. Kudos!

I knew I forgot something last night. They're packed up and are shipping tomorrow, you'll have to take pictures and post them here when they arrive.


115 is mighty wide for a Jmo, a 95 thats slightly bent would be much more optimal.


Press update - first pairs of 176cm Jmo's and Filthy's got pressed over the weekend.

I was also charged a bogus GST charge by Canada Customs. Nothing ON3P can do about it from the reading into it that I have done. Probably another cash grab for the Conservative Government. Regardless I'm ecstatic with the arrival of my Caylors. Now we just need snow on Vancouver Island!

Yessir Mt Washington has been my home hill for going on 10 seasons. Victoria is indeed a beautiful city; tons of sexy ladies around too. I live two hours up island in the Parksville/Nanaimo region.

There's been a rate change in some provinces from 5% to 12% this year. I'm very unhappy that some countries levy extra taxes and VAT for our skis, but they are imported from America.

Well for what its worth I've had similar experiences having other goods made in the US be charged varying tax rates.. I think the current government is trying to dissuade buying US goods. A friend of mine ordered a pair of Jeffrey's last year during the end of season sale around April and he wasn't charged any duty or levied any taxes despite the package being screened and eventually opened at the border. The skis arrived eventually without any additional charges and in perfect condition so it sounds as though Canada Customs is ass backwards.
