swegman2If you are looking at the Frakenskis with a 92mm waist why not consider the Magnus 90? More dedicated park ski, comes with a park detune and will definitely hold up on big jumps.
Benjamin_Dunz25I mean the new ones with the 98 waist mm
swegman2Oh sick. Yeah the Moment will probably be a little softer and more playful. I ride the Kartel 96 and it kills it in the park. I would say pick the stiffness you like best but you can't go wrong.
CalumSKIi like moment better so i would say frankenskis but i have no experience with either so idk
shin-bangI’ve always had this debate in my
mind about moment and on3p not so much park skis but more big/all mtn.
Obie.This would be a good comparison in this discipline of skiing due to Moment having much more of their lineup oriented towards big mountain / powder skiing.
iggyskierFirst off - if you aren't buying from ON3P, buy Moment.
Just because I find that impression interesting as a function of this discussion, and have seen it on here a few times, figured just lay it out. Of the (16) 2020 production models we have, only (4) fall under what would be considered park/jib skis.

Park = 4
Magnus 90
Magnus 102
Jeffrey 96 (which is/functions as an all mountain ski for a lot of customers, but lets include it here as a lot use it in the park)
Jessie 96 (applying same assumptions on Jeffrey 96)
All mountain = 8 (excluding all mountain performance/use of the Jeffrey/Jessie 96).
Jeffrey 108
Woodsman 96
Woodsman 108
Wrenegade 96
Wrenegade 96 Ti
Wrenegade 108
Wrenegade 108 Ti
Jessie 108
Powder/Big Mountain = 4
Jeffrey 116
Woodsman 116
Billy Goat
Cease & Desist
We don't have any touring specific 2020 skis.
Moment 2020 has 17 productions skis.
Park = 4
FrankenSki
Transition
PB&J (if Jeffrey 96 falls in the park category, PB&J would too - though everyone knows both function well all mountain)
Hot Mess (see above)
All Mountain = 7 (excluding all mountain performance use of the PB&J and Hot Mess)
Meridian
Wildcat 108
Deathwish
Commander 98
Commander 108
Sierra
Bella
Touring = 3
Wildcat Tour 108
Deathwish Tour 112
Wildcat Tour
Powder/Big Mountain = 3
Commander 118
Commander 124
Wildcat
So I mean...
Park = 4 vs 4
All Mountain = 8 vs 7
Tour = 0 vs 3
Powder/Big Mountain = 4/3
Anyway.because I've seen that impression before - that ALL ON3P makes is park skis, just wanted to clarify that it isn't the a full representation of what we offer or our sales (where the majority of the skis we sell never ski any park).
As for Frankenski vs Jeffrey 96, I think I would focus on the sidecut and balance. Both are going to be well built, stable, rockered park skis. Frankenski is going to be a bit more balanced and symmetrical in feel as it is a true symmetrical shape (121/98/121). I believe it is center mounted as well, where the Jeffrey 96 is around -4.
So, I would lean Frankenski for more of a true jib ski feel and the Jeffrey 96 if you want something with a bit more all mountain feel in it. Design wise, I find the Jeffrey 96 and PB&J are more similar in function, if you set aside the 5mm in width.
Hope that helps.
LukeTheWaffleOr are people on them in the park weird
LukeTheWaffleI have seen people riding j108s in the park, so could you do the reverse of having the all mountain capability of the j98a nd say the j108 still has great park ability? Or are people on them in the park weird
CHOCKLIT_SLOTH1Get on3p if you have the money

KevskiI think that depends what you’re doing in the park. I’ve ridden mine all over the mountain, from touring to park jumps. Slow lofty spins I think they’re primo for. So stable and poppy. But there’s no denying they’re a lot of ski (especially if you size up a bit for freeriding like I did) - if you want to whip them around you’ll definitely notice a bit more effort required if you have been used to something lighter and skinnier.
J96 would be easier to whip around while still stable and poppy.
For the Moment ON3P discussion I honestly think it’s about finding out exactly what you’re into and picking from the nuances they offer. Both companies are super sick and make top quality product with morals you can align with. For my next ski I want something more directional than a Frank and softer than a PB&J so I’m planning on a j96 for a smaller resort play ski this season.
If Moment were still making the PB&Jib I think my decision would be even harder.
link80We are not making the PB&Jib next season but the Frankenski gets wider. Its 98mm underfoot for 19/20.

It's the ski Anton was on for SuperUnknown.
