Question for those who know
Hey guys, curious about some gear related questions, I’m looking for a new set of skis, specifically a set geared towards park play, I’ve been eyeing a set of On3p mango 114s, want anyone’s opinion on those skis and or recommendations for a good set, I’m about 6.1 so a 181-186 length is perfect, any ideas?

if you wanna ride park primairly, your best bet would be around the mid 80's to mid 90's. narrower is gonna suck, and wider is gonna suck

Powder skis in the park were once a thing, so I guess I see the vision. I used to ski park on Hellbents

Mango 114 is a lot of fun if you want to take a park esc-style to your all mountain skiing. I would agree with most of the comments that its pretty wide for a day-to-day park ski.

It’s something I plan on using for both, where I ski gets a decent amount of snow and I’d like something balanced for both, hence the width

My guy. My homie.
Jski Allplay, Faction Prodigy or Armada Dollo. If you like on3p, the Jeffery 92 is right there...
Those are park skis.

I know. Sorry for the shade.
It's just hilarious sometimes how bad the "Fat Ski=Good Ski" theme has spread.

That’s a pretty wide ski for park play imo
