I did not break my brand new ON3Ps

Had my first day on my new Magnuses today and they're quite fun. What happened was: I skied with my brother. I hit a few rails, skied in various sizes of ditches and hit oversized solid ice moguls. Here's the skis, perfectly intact before skiing them. They're the same now, just with bindings on them.


But for real, they are quite fun. The flex is just right. It was like 20F here and they held an edge where I'd expect them too. They seem adept at park, unsurprisingly, although there wasn't much to test them on. Tons of pop and life in them. My brother liked them too (we have the same bsl so we can switch). Don't send any skis to that other guy. Now I'm thinking I should have just wore a gopro and skied in as many ditches and bumps as I could, but my trolling isn't on that level.

On a side note, have the mods just given up on moving these types of threads to gear talk?

True no one to help demand to get something back after you break skis and the company tries to help you.

you should hire another company to call out ON3P on making great skis, word on the street is there’s an 80% success rate

There have always been some threads that could have been in other forums left in sg nsg. If yourr biggest gripe is a thread about skis in ski gabber, I'd say it's all good.

This was intended to satire the other thread, not be a legit gear review.

Well that's a relief because there is a dedicated review section. And satire should go in NSG.

Come on Mods, get this shit cleaned up!

The fact that Mort mounted his own bindings is another reason he shouldn't get new skis. unless u work at a shop and r certified or if u r willing to live with not getting the warranty then have a shop do it. but dont mount urself then bitch about breaking them. dont get me wrong, his mounting job was probably not the reason they broke, that was the ditch, but still
