I've heard people say the magnus is way better for park but I've seen a lot of people riding jeffreys in the park. I like the 96 waist width option and dont know the real difference between the skis besides the stiffness. They should just make a magnus 96 imo

You just about nailed it. The mag is going to swerve, butter, pop, slide, and spin objectively better in the park but will not be as engaging and powerful outside of it. Comes down to how much time you spend outside of the park.

90’s are softer than the 102’s but only by a little bit. They are both relatively stiff skis, however, with the amount of rocker they have can cause slip outs, but it’s rare. They handle jumps at speed very well.

one plus about Jeffrey is in my experience even when the whole ski is vibrating hard and flexing the edge hold is still really nice and easy to control. I can imagine the Magnus probably won’t offer that same feeling.

I think on3p is Kinda sleazy for making their skis so expensive. 700-750$ is kind of ridiculous.

The build quality is top notch. ive had kartel 108s for 4 years now and they are in better shape than skis ive had for 1 yr and babied, i also use them as my early/late season rock skis. granted yeah that is alot for park skis and rails will destroy them, but for all mountain use you are probably gonna end up reselling them before you have to replace them.

1) Build quality is by far the best I have seen. No edge cracks and bases are indestructible in my experience.



2) they are a small company and can’t afford to hand build 400 dollar pairs of skis. If they could I bet they would

Dude, lots of skis msrp for 7-750. bentchetlers, edollos, ARV 106, Sakana, multiple black crows, Candide 2.0, reckoner 112. None of them have the same quality control or customer service that ON3P offers. Try to call up one of those companies and speak directly to the owner/ceo, FAT CHANCE.
