All I've ever heard of them is good from how well they perform to how long they last. I'm getting me a set next year.

If you can afford them, do it. I have caylors and I love them. On3p is such a sick company

On3p ski prices are very competitive....as long as they don't have to be shipped outside North America...They are actually cheaper than some of the big brand competition and have similar or better construction. Furthermore, you are investing is a small company that employs North American skiers....So it really is a win win

Leak?

In my opinion, a 186 would be about right for all mountain/park duties in place of the 181 size.

I have the 171 jeronimos and they are amazing. Perfect all mountain ski. they are very durable and hold up nice. the ski still has plenty of camber and just enough rocker to make them that much more playful for buttering and keep your tips up in the pow. They don't weigh much either so thats a plus. They are worth the money thats for sure. Next year if they have a pre sale like they did this year jump on it.

I am a fairly aggressive skier and these skis can rise to any occasion.
