Weirdo_PuppyIt depends on your riding style. Blends would be better for some people But ON3Ps would be better for others. If you give more information you can get better answers.
CatdickBojanglesIt really depends on what you want. Blends are soft. ON3Ps are not that soft just have a lot of rocker that you can leverage to butter. For pure park the magnus 90 or 102 is great but so is the blend. Outside the park I prefer the blend simply because the edge tune is so aggressive on the magnus and I am on the east coast where it is usually ice.

Jon_McMurryI’d say if you have the funds to go with on3ps over the blends. Haven’t seen a lot of blends last more than a couple years but I have seen some on3ps go the distance. I also don’t think blends make for a really good all mountain ski unfortunately. Just too soft imo.
tripleabatteriesWondering which would be better for park
SkylineGTR_R32A quick review of your profile tells me you’re pretty new to the scene. If you’re a beginner in terms of park skiing I wouldn’t recommend either. Give us some specific details about your style of skiing, as well as how advanced you are so we can get a better idea of what would work for you. While ON3Ps and blends are both great skis, especially ON3P, that doesn’t mean they are great for you. Buy the ski not the name/reputation.
tripleabatterieswell i ski on the east coast so slopers are different but i can do swaps on box i was aslo kinda meaning in about a year or two because of how much both of them are but i can ski double blacks and i havent been skiing too long but i am really focused on rails
