Replying to Help me make a life decision
I need some input for skis for next year.
I want a pair of Jessies but I'm not too sure what to get(86, 100, or 112). Right now I have K2 Empress's from 2 years ago that don't have any major damage. They were incorrectly mounted back a few centimeters but as a new park skier I was told it wouldn't matter and was too stoked to try my skis so I said it was fine and took them as they were. They're meh skis, decent for park, bad for anymore than 6 inches of snow basically. Lately I have been spending a lot more time out west and farther east where I would like something more pow/big mountain friendly.
I think I have 3 options.
1. Buy Jessie 86s for park because thats what I ride 50/65 days a year.
This would be the cheapest option, I also demo'd them and fucking loved them
or
2. Buy Jessie 100s, use those for when I go out west and still be able to use them for park on occasion. Also keep my K2's and have them remounted to center so they can be like my main park ski.
This would be more expensive, I demo'd these too and loved them as well.
or
3. Get Jessie 112s and only use them for pow and keep my K2's as my park ski(remounted and everything as said before). I would have a pow ski and park ski.
This would be the most expensive option and I didn't get to demo them - but they would be best for pow.
