Im super stoked for Jason, and can't wait to see what he does. These are the first skis he will be producing. But only 100 Pairs, each pair is signed by him, and the skis look awesome!

98mm waist, 171 & 178 lengths, maple and aspen core. Thats pretty much all the info there is about them. Something tells me they will be sick as an all mountain ski, J knows whats up.

Sign up on his newsletter to get all the info.

Though I bet these will most likely be pretty good skis, I personally wouldn't buy them to ride, at least not these ones, cuz their basically a collectors pair and it's the first pair he's putting out

the thing is, i do care. i dont doubt the quality of the ski, I am sure it will be an incredible ski. My question is more along the lines of, what type of incredible ski, with what kind of true purpose. Just because a ski is high quality, doesnt mean its for you.

With all his tech knowledge of skis, I am sure J poured a lot of work into these, I am just wondering what the exact application is. Should I buy this ski? Should I buy his next release or the one after? Or should I even buy the skis at all?

This. It's too bad they are only offered in 171 and 178... shoulda thrown a 182-185 in the mix. Rocker, no rocker, ect... would be nice

It's kind of pointless to have a 182 when you have a 178, that's really not a big difference, a 185 would be nice though

Can you give us an idea of the flex? Soft or stiff? And does the rocker start closer to the binding or a little more towards the tips? Seems like a perfect width for my park ski, really want something with a decent amount of and length of rocker, and minimal to no camber. But these seem pretty close

Seconded; I'd love to know any and everything you'd be willing to share about these skis, Jason. Flex, edging ability, etc, as much as you really can know or estimate—I get that these are newer than new. I badly need a new pair of all-around/park skis and I would love to support Jskis, but this is a big decision for me as I don't have a lot of disposable income. So details would make my decision easier!
