Am I the only one who thinks that ON3P is taking over the ski industry? Maybe their just more popular on social media but from my perspective they are the new line, except a lot more serious. I am also slowly watching all o my favorite athletes fall to the brand (Most recently Dominic Laporte) and I noticed that they sponsor a lot of online media like Big Air Dave and Mashed Potatoes. So is ON3P slowly become supreme overlord of the ski industry? Or am just seeing this differently? (And don't take me wrong I am not hating on ON3P or trying to be a hipster)
a_burgerY’all gonna act like vishnu and jet skis aren’t way trendier in parks now
At the end of the day it doesn't matter. Different business models entirely. ON3P is in for the long haul, and actually builds skis. I think Vishnu are happy with their model and aren't trying to be anything more than what they are, and catering to a niche. Jet Skis is a lazy hype model to sell an old design built in a snowboard factory.
If ON3P depended on park skier trends would not be in business.
We all know the hype kids are currently hating on ON3P because normal people ride their skis, but they always have from day one. Now they just aren't the only ones on their Midwest trash heap with a pair.

someone else bought the same skis as me and now I dont feel cool and special anymore :( so I'm gonna call them a poser!!!
I got a pair. The billy goats. I have never had a better pow or mashed potato ski. Ever.
Props to then. Being based in Oregon and making awesome skis. Fuck the hate
It’s really sad when a company’s success translates to a loss of their early adopters. Do they not get that this is the goal???? The company wants to sell skis and get people hyped on good shit. Remember when Line and Armada were core freestyle brands? I do. No one knew who they were if they didn’t read Freeze. Stop shitting on a company because they’re seeing success.

To add to this, ON3P has grown in a really dope and organic way. They still don't do wack shit or all of the sudden make a $300 foam core cap ski. They're just making the best skis around and putting them up for sale.

They also, um what’s it called— build the skis! Kind of surprisingly uncommon
