It's named after it's founder, and you have it upside down. It's actually dENO

13th and Proctor. I guess that's where the garage where the first ones were pressed was located.

It's just a funny stylization of onep, which is an acronym for Oregon-based New ski brand Entailing lots of cool skis with Pgreen bases.

I heard the skis are actually pressed at a vineyard in Oregon, thus the name P3NO.

Kids from flat ski regions have a totally different perspective than the rest of the skiing world.

ON3P is a government psyop. They build skis in area 51, claiming they're from Portland, but really it's super advanced alien tech which is why the skis are nigh unbreakable. I've heard tales of inter cosmic beings riding them on Neptune, and apparently the snow is fucking sick out there.

Flip it upside down is says deno.


From wikipedia
"Benjamin Deno was an an olympic ski jumping silver medalist in the 1972 games. He was thought to be one of the first people to ever grab his ski. Deno also began building his own custom skis during the later part of his career experimenting with rocker and other technologies not popularized for decades. During the 1977 world champs he was disqualified for being out of form by doing something similar to what we would call a safety grab. After the disqualification he stormed away from the event and poached the nearby bobsled track. On corner 3 he lost control and flew off the track. The impact killed him but his skis stayed intact. The On3p squad named themselves as tribute to a freestyle pioneer and early ski manufacture, as well as for the quality of skis, able to survive even the most dangerous of ditches unscathed. The 3 in the name fits as an E obviously but was also a nod to the corner where the legend lost his life"

RIP deno!!!

Another legend gone but not forgotten.
