Keegs.Are you looking for a one ski quiver, or trying to have multiple pairs? I am by no means an expert so take all this with a grain of salt, and feel free to correct me on anything I'm wrong on. So your old 158 Edollos specs are 129-96-119 (Tip to tail width in mm) with a turning radius of 16.5m. If you're looking to strictly replace them the 2021 Jeffrey 171s are 124-96-119 with a 17.9m radius, weighing in at 1.71kg with an effective edge of 135.5cm. These will definitely be heavier than your old Edollo's and will feel less agile in the trees. The 2020 Jessie's measure in at 121-96-116, with a turning radius of 17.6m, an effective edge of 126cm and weigh in at 1.64kg. These will be a little lighter than the Jeffrey's (still heavier than the Edollo's) and be a bit easier to control in tight situations. If you're looking for a one ski quiver I might consider bumping both these up to their wider varient's (the 102 and 108s I believe) to give you a bit better performance in powder at the cost of weight tradeoffs. Another versatile park ski you could look at is the Line Chronic's at 164cm. Their specs are 129-95-120, turn radius of 16 (at 177cm long so the 164s will have a shorter radius) and they weigh 1.661kg (also at 177 cm long meaning the 164s will be noticeably lighter. Chronic's don't do great in the powder but are a fairly decent all mountain jibby type ski (in my mind at least).
All that information is kinda useless however without knowing which direction you are going in, so I guess to reiterate and hone it in. Are you looking for a good one ski quiver you can take for some park laps but also hit some cliffs & powder in? Are you looking for a park or powder specific ski to branch your quiver out?
CatdickBojanglesI could be wrong but I think the Jessie and Jeffrey are the same ski.
Keegs.They're the men and women variants of the same ski I believe
corndogGoonpretty much, yeah. I'd say I want to progress my rail game, but I don't want to spend my whole day in the park. So yeah, a good all around ski.

CatdickBojanglesYeah and I’m pretty sure ON3P doesn’t soften women’s skis up like most companies. They are just shorter and different graphics.
