Kyler is an illustrator, tattooer and muralist living in Seattle who's unique work incorporates traditional tattoo iconography with an old world vibe that truely sets it apart from the rest. You'll instantly recognize his work on iconic restaurant, hotels and office buildings throughout Seattle. Scope the giant octopus in the lobby of the Ballard PCC, it's nutz! While looking through his work, this piece with crazy skull birds caught our eye. We love how you just see birds, or it flips on you and just see skulls. We knew this would be a graphic like nothing we had ever put on a ski before so we spent a lot of time working together to fit it onto the long wide canvas so that it flows naturally from tip to tail with more details to constantly discover every time you look at it.
I'm building only 350 pair of these Limited Edition skis and hand-signing and numbering each, so grab a new pair before they sell out! Follow Kyler Martz and learn more about his history and work here

A lighter ski that also charges hard, making it the least nerdy touring ski in the world.
"The Slacker" is a powder-focused ski designed with uphill efficiency in mind, while maintaining the reliable downhill performance that J skis are known for. This ski is as happy spending 100% of its time riding lifts as it is venturing off into the unknown, a unique characteristic that leaves traditional, nerdy, uphill-specific skis behind. "The Slacker's" weight-conscious Aspen core and twin-tip shape make it light and ultra-maneuverable to whip around through tight trees or chutes. A subtle tail notch provides reliable skin clip retention for fast transitions. Add our pre-cut skins that perfectly fit the skis, and you're ready to go touring right out of the box! Charge, surf, slash, play, and have more fun adventuring off the beaten path. Go get fresh tracks!

This ski is kind of a big deal!
The Slacker does a great job of maintaining much of the predictability, versatility and playfulness of J's other skis, in a lighter package.
- Blister Gear Review
Anyone can hop aboard and drive, bend, and edge and just have a good day skiing. I could hand this to anyone who wants to ski powder without working too hard.
- SKI Magazine
This is the perfect crossover ski; light, playful and stable. It has great edge-to-edge feel that makes turning feel like buttering bread with a warm knife.
- Freeskier Magazine
While lightweight, you won't sacrifice performance coming back down. If your goal is to play on bigger lines and sidecountry powder, The Slacker will help you achieve it.
- Powder Magazine
Confidence-inspiring edge hold; The Slacker is a stable ski to throw hard into turns.
