Jeffrey 102 config

About 2 months ago I made a post asking for recommendations about a park ski for someone who's 6'9. I got a lot of feedback

and I've settled on a custom pair of ON3P Jeffrey 102's. For reference I'm 6'9 and I weigh roughly 230lbs, and I ski a 191. I

need input on what layup and stiffness to go with. I need a stiffer ski due to my height and weight, but I've heard from people

that the 102's are already fairly stiff. Will I have to pick the stiffer flex option or should I leave it as is? Also I don't understand

what the purpose of the different layups are, so am I better off keeping stock? Any help would be appreciated. :3

You’re a big bigger than me, I’m 6’3 200 and ride the Jeff 102 191, normal layup.


It’s really just a preference and tbh if you don’t know then I’d just go stock.

It would help tho if we knew what other skis you rode before

Jeff is pretty stiff, I think stock would probably be fine.

ON3P already makes fairly stiff skis as stock. I wouldnt change the layup from stock unless you have touring in mind, and I wouldnt change the flex unless you have already experienced an ON3P and KNOW you want a different flex.

I can only recall maybe one or two regular customers that ordered all their skis with extra stiffness when I worked there. One was around 6'10, 350lb - some guy out of the midwest raised on corn and potatoes. Extra stiffness worked out well there.

Most people buying 191cm ON3P's arent 5'6" and 150lbs anways - would bet you will be just fine.

I ended up with an extra stiff Vicik one time. It was literally unskiable for me.
