In guessing you're looking at the ON3P Filthy rich and Icelandic danollie?

I have Da Nollies and 3 of friends have Filthy's. All of our skis are chipping quite a bit, but haven't had any cracks, or anything wrong. I went out for a weekend to a small resort and did some tree skiing on the new 7 inches of snow they got. I skied over a huge boulder i didnt see with both of my skis and I have a small scratch on one ski, no core shot or anything. What I'm trying to say is, you cant go wrong with either company

I've had a few pairs of on3ps now so I have a good idea bout them but never actually had icelantics just friends.
On3p you sacrifice a bit heavier ski for a way beefier and more durable build
iclantics I think are quite durable compared to most companies without weight sacrifice.

havnt ridden icelantics and I never will cause I'm never riding anythin other than ON3P

Fagelwhy yes


Okay just wasn't sure if you were thinking of danollie and Kartel because those have similar waists.

I haven't skied either the icelantics or filthies but I have ridden the Kartels a lot since I own them and I love them. Everyone here is right, durability from ON3P is just unmatched. Either ski would be a good choice but I'd go ON3P. Also, if you're looking at getting the filthy rich next year be aware it's being replaced by the "Magnus". It's gonna be a good replacement tho

The only thing i'm worried about is the weight of the ski? How big of an issue will that be because I am currently riding the 2014 Atomic Punx and they are very light, How much of a difference would it be?

I went from 176CM J Skis whip-its to the 186CM Kartel 98. So I obviously added considerable weight to my setup, but I have noticed nothing but improvements in the way I ski.

It's heavier than most park skis for sure but it's not unbearably heavy by any means. You'll be able to have a pretty nimble ski still
