Hello all, I am looking at buying a set of skis, it has been a while since I have been in the market. Currently I am on some 2014 Atomic Access Skis. I am 24 years old, 5'11" 165lbs. I ski mostly in resorts, located in Utah. I grew up skiing and am fairly advanced, but want to work on switch skiing, jumps, and park this season.
Most of my skiing until now involves groomers and in trees, some moguls. Occasionally (after a good storm) I am in the powder (1ft or less) so I would like to stay around a 100mm width ski.
Budget is under $850. I am looking for a one quiver ski for now and have narrowed down a few options but would like some input, as I am not wanting to demo a lot of skis before I make my decision. I am hoping for a ski that is not as stiff as I have now so I can have more fun in the park and off jumps, but will still be able to charge hard when I need it too on groomers.
I am looking at these skis but am also open to other recommendations.
ON3P Jeffrey 102 - great reviews but they look to be the stiffest of my selection
Line Sir Francis Bacon - great reviews as well, but they are the widest of the skis and look to be more for powder
Line Blend - These look narrower than the SFB but I don't know how well they would perform all mountain with their flexibility.
I am leaning towards the ON3P Jeffrey
