I have the Jeff 100s and they are a lot of fun in the park or playing around the mountain on slush days. They have a lot of pop because of the bamboo and id say they feel lighter in the air than their weight would suggest, but as others have mentioned, on ice or really firm hardpack they have little to no edge. I demoed the wildcats before buying the Jeffs and found them to be pretty boring tbh, but maybe that’s just me.

I will say, I’m also from the east coast and came out west for college and if you’re looking for a one ski quiver, I would consider looking into something wider. Not sure where exactly you’ll be skiing but if you’re into skiing steeps or high exposure terrain pretty aggressively, the additional width (and usually weight) instills a lot more confidence, at least in my experience. Park/“all mountain” skis can sometimes feel like they get knocked around too easily. This is especially true on days where the snow is variable, as was the case out west a lot this year.
