Hello NS,
i'm looking for opinions/advice on which of these three skis would suit me best.
I'm 6 ft. weigh about 145 and ski in the PNW, Stevens Pass is my home mountain.
I currently have a pair of hellbents, but i want something longer and more versatile.
Im leaning more towards the magic j cuz the graphics are dope

Drive 4 hours to Portland and test ON3P line up. They make skis for the PNW.

im 5'8 140lbs riding 180 magic j's and have had a great experience with them this season. they float really well, have phenomenal pop and are fairly darn maneuvarable when your in tight sections or need to ditch speed quickly. they do like to go rather fast and rather straight, if you dont pressure the edges they pickup speed pretty quick and just bomb but when you need to they can be thrown around fairly easily as well. the ski was softer than i initially thought as well, not a noodle by any means but you can definitely flex the tails. real fun ski.
