I own both and have solId experience riding them in all sorts of conditions. 1st off it depends where you ride. In the Pacific NW, the Chets are the king in powder. I love my JJs but with the heavy wet snow the Chets just ride it so much better. As for all mountain non pow days I prefer my JJs. Both are very playful and can turn in the tighter of situations. Its a total toss up but I will say the JJs are awesome but the Chets are amazing.

bentchetles have a lot more rocker. They are both very versatile skis but the 'chets float better than the jj's. as far as i know the flex is similar. if you ski more pow get the chets if you ski alot of backcounty in variable snow conditions get the jj. If i were you, I'd get the 'chets because the turn radius on the jj is so short. on groomers i prefer to ski down the mountain not across it. I would also want the one with better powder preformance.
