I'm planning on getting jeffrey 110 as a do it all ski and ordered cast for them. I would like to know if anyone here owns the 108 in softer flex and how do they compare to stock. Why im thinking soft is because i usually ski softer skis (blend) i like to butter a lot. I emailed on3p and they told me the soft is 0.5/10 difference, I'm 175cm~ 170lbs what do you guys think would suit me best?

I have the J110, haven’t skied them yet but based on hand flexing them I am not sure I would want then any softer. But that is just me.

I have the jeffrey 108s in a regular flex and I honestly might stick with that. I'm circa 150lbs and can butter on those, partially because there's so much damn rocker. If you can really get into the butter too, the stiffer flex will pop you out of it more which is definitely helpful if you're going for like butter 3's or 5's (or more but I wouldn't know)

I’ve got the standard Jeffrey 108 as an all mountain/touring (with diy daymaker system) ski and I would say they’re a wee stiff for my liking. I also prefer a softer ski (used to have blends and now I’m on vishnus) and I struggle to really butter the Jeffreys. Tbh I’m trash at butters anyway but almost all the butter I get on the Jeffreys comes from the rocker. If I was you I’d get the softer model

Coincidentally I've been pondering the same thing. Currently riding a pair of older shreditor 102 which have a good amount of rocker and enjoy softer skis in general.
Despite what others say, if you like soft skis, I'd go for the softer flex. You know what you like. Sounds like it wouldnt make a huge difference anyway .5/10 is the difference between taking a big poop anway.

I have Kartel 108s and feel that they’re a bit soft already for how I ride them. I love the ski, Incredibly poppy and playful I just feel like I need something a bit more
