Looking at a custom set of on3p as the title suggests I had these 98s and fell in love with them. Now on3p doesn't offer a 98 but the 96 I am looking to keep it to one ski that can do all. On the east coast we don't get many days of pow but when we do I dip into the trees and ski them. I ski park bumps and groomers mainly and some trees when the snow is there. I had the magnus 102 liked them but barely rode them and sold those and stuck to my 98. What would be the best way if I had to choose one. If a two ski quiver what would you do?

Sounds like you want the 96 from what you said

Yeah and when I talked to on3p they said 102 would be the most ideal but I just didn't have much grip then again the magnus was heavily detuned

If you're more into park, bumps and groomers 96 for sure.

I prefer 102 as a daily but might see more fresh snow.

Tahoe mostly. Depends on the season with how much snow we get. I don't hit rails anymore (just jumps) and go after bumps and off piste stuff.

Having said that I just got a pair of woodsman 96 tours to cut weight.

Right on. I was born/raised in nyc skiing pa and (if i was lucky) vt. I miss the ice coast sometimes. Glad I came from the east because I appreciate the west coast a lot more. When folks from out west are complaining about a bad season ending "early" in may, I'm grinning since april was the latest I ever got to ski in vermont. Then again out here I was skiing back to back years into july out here so you should def move out west ;)
