J Skis Bob Ross x J Collab THE JOY OF SKIING 2 Allplay 178cm

Description: These are number 450 of 450. The very last set off the line.Hand signed and numbered. Never Used or Mounted. These were a limited run and will never be made again! THE ARTWORKBob Ross x J CollabYup, this is for real! Two years ago our first Bob Ross graphic collab sold out before the mountains even opened! Since then people have continued to ask for part 2... so this is your chance! Due to the gigantic number of Bob Ross fans (ALL humans on earth), this ski will sell out faster than any ski I've ever made. So if you're a fan, pull the trigger today before they're gone forever... don't say I didn't warn you!Bob is more than just one of the most iconic painters of the 20th century, he's also a visionary, a prophet and obviously a jedi master when it comes to painting happy little trees! If you've never watched his show, do a quick search, sit back and experience the joy of painting! You'll immediately become star struck by his super natural afro, and with enough practice you too can learn how to harness the power of “happy little accidents.”Remember, I’m only building 450 pair of this new Limited Edition graphic on “The Allplay" ski, one of our most popular models. I also hand-sign and number each pair so you have a unique ski... just like Bob's artwork. If you're at all considering this ski, I strongly suggest you order yours immediately before they sell out again! THE ALLPLAY™119 - 98 - 117THE MID-WIDTH SKI IN OUR PLAY COLLECTION WITH A SOFTER FLEX FOR A MORE BUTTERY FEEL ON FIRM SNOW, PLUS ADDED FLOAT IN BOOT DEEP POWDER.Regardless of the terrain, these light and nimble skis are no work… ALL PLAY! The "Allplay" has a versatile 98mm width and innovative shape and flex provide for the best of all worlds. Reliable precision under foot for ripping all-mtn, wide enough to easily float boot deep freshies in the trees, and a light, playful, buttery feel for throwing tricks in the park & all over the hill. Its unique, forgiving flex is evenly distributed throughout the entire length of the ski, which enables it to easily conform to all transitions and terrain for added confidence in bumps and throwing tricks off every feature you come across. I designed the tips with a very gentle rocker and early tapper shape for a catch-free, effortless, surfy feel. You’ll be able to quickly pivot in tight zones and never have to worry about catching an edge again, even in the pow. The Allplay is guaranteed to be the most fun, playful and versatile skis you’ve ever ridden, turning the entire mountain into your personal playground.#JAllplaySkiTHE FINEST MATERIALSBy selling these skis factory direct to you, we're able to invest more money into using the highest quality materials possible for a game-changing level of premium performance & durability.SPECSCompare ModelsLENGTH157cm164cm171cm178cm184cmDIMENSIONS119-98-117mm119-98-117mm119-98-117mm119-98-117mm119-98-117mmSIDECUT RADIUS15m16.6m18.2m20.1m21.5mWEIGHT PER SKI1660g1690g1785g1945g1955gEFFECTIVE EDGE1230mm1300mm1370mm1440mm1500mmCAMBER4mm4mm4mm4mm4mmROCKER HEIGHT TIP / TAIL3 / 3mm3.25 / 3.25mm3.5 / 3.5mm3.75 / 3.75mm4 / 4mmTIP / TAIL LENGTH240 / 240mm250 / 250mm260 / 260mm270 / 270mm280 / 280mmTIP / TAIL HEIGHT55 / 55mm55 / 55mm55 / 55mm55 / 55mm55 / 55mmBOOT FROM CENTER-4cm-4cm-4cm-4cm-4cmBOOT FROM TAIL745mm760mm795mm825mm855mmCarbon FiberLighter with more energy & pop than fiberglassJust like fiberglass carbon needs to be fully stretched like a guitar string to give you the most pop. Unlike other brands of skis with wavy black carbon, not stretched, thus you’re not getting the energy out of it, we use pre-cured, pre-stretched carbon fiber laminates. This means the carbon is pre-stretched & cured under perfect conditions at the carbon fiber production facility prior to us receiving it. This pre-cured carbon laminate is twice the cost but also gives you many more times the performance. You’ll feel it!Maple Wood CoreHighest quality wood for a lively energetic feel & long lifeThe factory is located in Quebec Canada, so we got Maple, eh! Maple is a very expensive high quality hard wood, thus the reason it’s used to build floors and furniture in your house that lasts a lifetime. Maple absorbs impact, and has a ton of energy for a very ski feel and long life. We run 4 – 20mm wide Maple laminates the entire length of the core, plus 100% under your foot for unprecedented energy, durability & binding screw retention. At the tips of my skis you’ll see more of the light colored Aspen which is incredibly lightweight with plenty strong when laminated alongside Maple for reduced swing weight at the tips.Full Height SidewallsMaximum impact resistant & vibration dampeningWe’re using super durable, high impact absorbing Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) polyethylene for our sidewalls. This is the same material we use on our ski's bases. It’s very impact resistant and since it’s full height, it also absorbs more vibration like using a longer spring in your car’s suspension. Take a metal pipe and hit it against a rock, then do the same with a piece of plastic. The metal vibrates through to your bones & the plastic absorbs the vibration for you. That’s the difference of having full height plastic shock absorbing sidewalls over your edges or not. We’re cutting the sides of the sidewalls to a 10* angle, with a nice step at the bottom for easy tuning like race skis.Extra Thick EdgeThe thickest, most durable edge in the industryWe use the thickest hardened steel edges in the industry 2.2mm x 2.5mm. More metal = more durable. Whether you’re accidentally hitting a rock or purposely sliding a rail, you’re edges will live a much longer life. You’ll also be able to re-tune many more times or file them round to slide rails longer.High Performance BaseThe fastest, thickest, most durable base materialI don’t match my clothes, but I always match my base & edge. We use the thickest edge so I also use the thickest base in the industry 1.8mm. I use sintered Ultra High Molecular Weight (UHMW) Polyethylene, the highest quality base material available. It absorbs wax better, slides faster, and is more durable than any other base material. Basically it’s super hard & fast, like your _______ likes it.Rubber LaminateAbsorbs vibration and dramatically reduces risk of delamThink of a ski’s construction like a magazine, each page = layers of material in the ski. Then bend your magazine you’ll see every page slide against each other, this is “shear”. This shear force trys to separate, thus delaminate all the layers in your ski every time it’s flexed or the tips are slapped down on a jump landing. This is why I run a layer of thin rubber around the full perimeter of the ski over the entire edge, plus the full width of across the tip and tail. The rubber acts as an insulator so that the edge and other materials can slide against each other when flexing without delaminating. This dramatically improves durability & reduces vibration.Quasitropic FiberglassFibers run in 4 directions to maximize energy & strengthFiberglass works like a guitar string, when it is flexed it wants to spring back, that’s the energy or pop you feel in a ski. However this energy can only be applied in the direction the actual fiberglass is run. This means the more directions of fiberglass, the more energy, pop & responsiveness. Industry standard “Triaxial” fiberglass runs in only three directions, we use a Quasi Isotropic fiberglass configuration, same as the aerospace industry to maximize energy & strength in as many directions as possible, 4 different axis 0, 90, +45, -45. It costs more, but it’s worth the performance.High Definition Digital PrintingYou already know I put a lot of value in graphics! So instead of traditional silk screening with low resolution image quality, you’ve seen the dots! I’m using a state of the art, Fuji UV Flat bed printer, a $170,000 machine that enables me to print high resolution from my computer directly to the plastic top & base. The resolution is unbelievable photo-real so you’ll be one of few skiers in the world with skis looking this good on your feet.
