im looking for a good all mtn ski that can shred in the park as well, i'm 5'11'' 162 i do ride mostly park, but i'll be skiing out west a little also and need something that can also destroy all mtn. In the park i ride about 70/30 rails/jumps the jumps i hit are anywhere from 20ft to 50ft . I want a ski that is stiffer than my current ski (line TC) but still has a good flex (if the TC's are a 5/10 softness, then im looking for a 6.5 or 7/10

+k for help :)

I'd suggest the line chronics. they rip everywhere. my friend has a pair and digs them. he hits mostly park, but has no problem skiing everything

Most companies now make at least one ski that fits your needs. If you're looking for more park oriented performance, without sacrificing the ability to ski all mountain, I'd look at stuff around 100 underfoot. However if you're more interested in all mountain skiing, but still want to be able to ski the park on the same ski, some around 107 underfoot might fit your bill better. Its all personal preference, I prefer a slightly wider ski for everything, but then again for what you want to do, some people would want something on the skinnier side, ie. ~100 underfoot. Regardless, I've listed skis from both categories so you can choose. See below ...

Skis around 100 Underfoot

Rossignol Scimitar Open

Rossignol Scimitar

Line Blend

ON3P Jeronimo

Moment PB&J

K2 Kung Fujas

K2 Shredittor 102 (come out for the 2013/2014 season and replaces the Kung Fujas)

Volkl Bridge

Dynastar 6th Sense Silencer

Line Chronic

Surface One Time


Skis around 107 Underfoot

Line Sir Francis Bacon

Atomic Blog

Salomon Rocker2 108

Rossignol Sickle Open

Moment Deathwish

ON3P Jefferey

K2 Shredittor 112 (comes out for the 2013/2014 season)

Icelantic Nomad


There are probably a few that I've missed, but I'm sure some other guys will fill those in for me. Hope this helps, Joey

You should look at k2 recoils, line chronics, line blends. I'm in the same situation that you are in. But I ski Midwest. And now I'm looking for a pair of chronics.

He hit this one on the head.


I have the ON3P Jmos which I got this year and they are kick ass. Without a doubt I would recommend them to anyone who dables in all mountain (including slush and pow as well as park).

If you want some other options you can look and see about the 4frnt Cody as that is a phenomenal ski.

Just my two cents, if you have any other questions about the Jeronimos by ON3P i would be happy to answer anything you have on your mind.
