Hey guys ive been looking for skis next year and have narrowed down my two favorites to the ON3P filthy rich and the Icelantic Da'nollie. From what i have come across from my research is that both skis are awesome rockered park skis that can handle almost anything u throw at them. Anyways i ski mostly park but sometimes i will ski other terrain like groomers, a few inches of pow (i live in the east coast so we dont get that much pow) and occasionally like to dip into the trees. Overall im looking for a really playful park ski that i can butter and press stuff all day, hold and edge in case i want to charge a few lines on the groomers and wont become a noodle in the long run. I will probably give my skis a little bit of a beating but not to much so durability is helpful to. I would just like you guys to give me some information on what ski I should lean towards and what ski you would choose in my situation. All recommendations and input is greatly appreciated thank you.

im pretty sure the FR is stiffer. Both will be playful because of the camber rocker profile. id say the da nollie will be more jib oriented while the FR would hold up better going mach loony out side the park. Both companies build great skis and should hold up just as well as anything else on the market

Ok ya ive heard that the fr is a stiffer ski thanks for the intput and im around 5'6 120 lbs any idea on what size i should get for either of them? I know that there lengths are similar but ON3P measures after they press.

Go for 170 Da Nollie or 171 FR. I rode the 170 Da Nollie last season and i was 5'5 at the start of the season. It took me a few days to adjust to weight but length didnt feel to long at all. The Da Nollie is actually pretty stable at speed for how soft it is. I think you will enjoy both either way, both are really durable besides top sheets, but thats just cosmetic. Detune your edges before you ride em to make em last longer

Detune them anyway. Factory Detune do almost nothing. I'm not sure how much park you're going to do, but you'll want to, it will make the edges last longer.

This. While most companies are going to detune the tips and tails to prevent getting stuck in turns, they won't do a ton of detuning to the underfoot of the ski / where the ski slides the rail.

dam son...you gotta put on weight you a little stick brah.

But for real I'd go with the size thats about 170...should be a good size that you can grow into a little as well.
