Hey guys,
I'm looking for a dedicated powder ski and right now i'm tryna choose between the ON3P Billy Goats and the Moment Wildcat. I currently ski the Icelantic nomad 105s which I really like but I'm looking for something that'll be better in deep snow. I usually ski in a centered stance and I'm more of a chargey skier but I still like to jib a bit. Also, I have low stamina so I was wondering which one of the two would be more forgiving?

Jeffrey would be more of a comparison to the Wildcat than the BG.

Jeffrey 118s are sold out unfortunately and I think I would want something more directional than that.

Well the BG is definitely going to be directional. And will probably charge harder than the Wildcat. But I would not call the BG "jibby". Definitely stable in the air, stable at speed, likes to be driven from the center of the ski. I can't speak too much on the Wildcat.But they aren't very similar skis.

Wildcat is definitely a bit more ice friendly, so if you plan to ski these on mediocre pow days as well, I’d definitely go wildcat. With that said, the billy goat definitely is a bit more surfy, while also chargey. I would say wildcat is more jib oriented though, especially if you mount it forward a cm or two.

If you are looking for a dedicated powder ski there is a great deal on a pair of ON3P C&Ds on TGR. Slap a pair on $150 attacks and you are good to go..
