Hey, I am about 5'10, 120 pounds , I like to do mainly park, but also some powder, more rails than jumps, I need some opinions, I've heard they are both great skis I just can't make the right decision quite yet.

I've had both and i strongly recommend the ninethward first-bloods, they are just a better ski they are light, poppy, soft tips and stiff tails and just all around fun. the extremes have no life to them and are not very fun to ski. Go with ninthward you wont regret it.

talk to wat on here and hell give you a deal if you cant get a hold of him message me and ill give you his email and phone number.

anytime you can avoid spending money on a ninthward product, you should do so.

This idiot works for the biggest joke of as ski company on the planet who burns their own factory down and tells the world. OMP3 skis.  Thought skiing already weeded out the companies that give skiing a bad rap.  Do us all a favor and hang it up.  Your skis suck and you do not know what your doing.  Quit before you lose ALL your money OMP3.

I am not really sure what your talking about here, I don't think any ski company employees have posted in this thread (but I have a funny feeling that your Mr. Cambell).

I have also not heard of any ski companies burning their factory down. I would not be surprised if 9thward did this, despite not having a factory. It would not be the first time someone from 9thward has shot themselves in the foot.

As for weeding out all the bad ski companies, that point is moot since 9thward is still around despite failing to ship their skis multiple times, and fucking over a sizable chunk of the freesking industry, including Newschoolers.com.

Also not sure why you brought up OMP3, never heard about them before. If you were trying to write ON3P, I am equally confused as this thread is not about ON3P.

if your super poor like me id go witht he extremes simply because working with a large company like k2 is alot easier if your ski breaks or something. The extremems are bulletproof and you can get them replaced through k2 if they break super easily. but as they said before the ninthwards are a slightly better ski and everyone will think your super cool. Like everyone here on newschoolers who overhype the smaller companies' products.
