Drop into the park with the J.O. Pro Alpine Ski. This Twintip ski features Air Coat hollow glass laminate to give you a super light, poppy ski for precise butters and bomber edge grip, if you can manage to peel your eyes of the topsheet’s graphic. The tech construction also increases the overall strength of the ski to give you for bomber durability, season after season. The J.O. Pro ski's narrower 77mm waist is lightning quick from edge to edge, which is key for fast reaction times in the pipe or park. A super fast UHM C die-cut base gives you excellent glide, so you'll have enough speed to clear the lip.
Bottom Line: You may not throw Kangaroo Flips like Jon, but you have no excuse not to stomp on the Head J.O. Pro Model.
I just purchased the gryphons for this pair of skis. Theyre installing them right now at the shop, the guys went crazy over the skis and they highly recommended those bindings. give it a shot :)
If you are looking for the best park ski you will ever try, just watch Jon ski on these and ask yourself, "is that the ski for me." There is a reason why he put hot chicks on it, because he designed the ski himself. From the glass core, to the graphics exciting you while you ski, these skis will make you giddy. I am not even a true park skier, but when I ski these things I love how light and responsive they are. I was amazed how well they turn at speed, and how incredibly light they are. Did I mention how light and responsive they are? There is a reason why HEAD has been around since the dawn of the sport. You will love these if you are looking for this type of ski.
I ski in the parks at Park City. i can do all of the jumps and most of the boxes there but i cant do many tricks. Do you have to be like a pro skiier to handle these skis? or are they good skiis for anyone doing the park
Because of the light weight construction and quite a bit of side cut this is an extremely easy ski to ski. You don't have to be a pro to flex and turn this ski. Its an extremely versatile park ski and the J.O. is also comfortable haulin ass on the groomers too. These are REALLY fun skis.
NO you dont need to be a pro skier. I have many friends that ride these skis at my local hill in wisconsin and they are most def not pros...the only difference between these skis and a normal park ski is that Jon Olsson has his name on them and he chose the graphic. These skis will be just fine for you.
Just purchased these skis about a month ago gettign the bindings on now. Havn't had the chance to ride them yet. However let me say the flex is perfect the design and of course the graphics are all flawless. The current price is an absolute steal, everyone at the ski shop was raving over them. If your looking for a park / all mountain ski these are the skis you want to purchase.
Just last month I ordered a pair of these from right here on this website, I can't wait to try them out this winter in New England. I am just trying to figure out where I want to mount the binding on them... This will be my forth year skiing park and pipe and I really want to start getting into some serious tricks. My last skis (Atomic Triplets) were pretty cheap and fairly crappy. I had the bindings mounted in the center and it was down right a pain in the ass to ski with them anytime I was outside of the park. Any idea if these JO Pros will be stable with a binding mounted in the middle on the rest of the mountain, or should a push it back a little bit to try and get some stability in corners and what not? Thanks!
If I remember correctly there are three mounting points labeled on the ski. i would use the middle of the three which will be a sweet spot between dead center mounted and 3cm back of center all mountain type skiing.
I didn't really know what to think when first getting on these skis. Flexing them before hitting the snow, i knew they had a tad soft flex which is nice for butters and presses. I feel that they were a tad too soft for my liking as I usually ride Suspects which have a little more stiffness and pop.
The flex through me off a little, but just messing around the mountain these were a ton of fun. As I mentioned, their softer flex really did well on rails and boxes, and theyre pretty light for popping off tables.
The contruction I would change up. Cap construction? Not a big fan of that. Graphics are ill with the fly lady eyeing you while you rip. Overall, solid ski with a soft flex. 3 out of 5.
heard great things about these skis but a couple of questions ... hows the flex. i need something that will nollie ollie and butter with ease also performs enough to go big on jumps and rails... comparison to the anthems which one would you prefer for good feeling butters stomping landings and switching up on a kink... please help any other skis that seem like they would be good for me let me know
These skis are super super super soft, but still really really poppy and also way light. Remember that a ski that butters really well won't stomp landings very well, so you will have a bit of a tradeoff. This ski is light, but more poppy than buttery, so it can still stomp fairly well. If you want something kind of in between check out the AR6 or the Suspects. Those are both the skis that JF Houle was able to get nose butter 270's on in Dew Tour and was still able to stomp his jumps with because those skis are so legit. Honestly though, this ski is a nice contender.
