Brands send us the sticks and we spend a solid chunk of our own seasons shredding them.
Surely it had to all be hype?
But in terms of build quality, these were probably the best built skis Ive seen.
The bases are both high quality and very well finished.
In short, ON3P build their skis extremely well.
Skis break, deal with it.

And when it comes to how they ride, the positives are plain to see.
Dont get me wrong, its a really fun ski to butter on.
Pop is a key word to mention when discussing these skis too, they have it in abundance.
This is, however, one the of the areas the Magnus could be accused of lacking.
So the compromise they have made between playfulness and stability is nonetheless admirable.
But the width means that they are easy to spin regardless.
I found tricks coming back to me that I thought I had long abandoned.
Outside of the park, the huge rocker has some definite positives too.
The endless rail options in Zermatt meant these spent a lot of time on metal.
Much of the rockered section will engage if you get enough lean going on.
If you want minimal suck in those conditions, the Magnus might not be for you.
The same goes for anyone who heavily prioritizes pipe/jumps: just buy a full cambered ski.
For everyone else, I cant say much more than these are a fantastic park ski option.
If these are particularly important things to you, then the Magnus might not be the best option.
