Golden Sports is now the exclusive Canadian retailer for J Skis. Handmade in Rimouski with roots in Burlington, Vermont, J Skis delivers limited-release designs and a lineup built for skiers who want something unique, fun, and high-performing. With models like the Allplay (97 mm), Masterblaster (99 mm), Hotshot (104 mm), and the Best Friend (118 mm), we’re bringing the full J Skis collection to Canada. Whether you’re after playful all-mountain versatility or deep-day float, we’ve got access to every ski they make!

We’re excited to announce that J Skis is now available at Golden Sports, and we’re proud to be the only retailer in Canada offering their full lineup. J Skis is known for skis that are fun, energetic, and built with a lot of personality, and we’re thrilled to bring the brand to Canadian skiers.

Made with Canadian lumber right here in Quebec

While J Skis is based in Vermont, every ski is manufactured in Rimouski, giving the brand a strong Canadian link. The build quality coming out of that factory is a big part of why J Skis has such a loyal following.
For anyone who appreciates local craftsmanship, riding something built right here in Canada is a big plus.

Limited-Release Graphics

J Skis releases every topsheet in limited quantities, and once a graphic sells out, it’s gone for good. They don’t recycle old artwork or follow annual design cycles, so every run has its own identity.

These skis are meant to be skied hard, but the limited graphics add a unique character to each model.

Model Highlights 

Here are a few of the standout skis in the J Skis lineup that give a good sense of what the brand is all about:

Hotshot — 104 mm Underfoot | Strong, Stable, All-Mountain

At 104 mm, the Hotshot offers a planted, confident feel underfoot. It handles mixed snow well and brings the kind of stability that all-mountain skiers appreciate.
Best For: Skiers who want a powerful, trustworthy ski for a bit of everything.

Allplay — 97 mm Underfoot | Playful, Quick, and Freestyle-Friendly

The Allplay is the most playful ski J makes. At 97 mm, it’s quick to pivot and easy to bend, giving it a smooth, surfy feel all over the mountain.
Best For: Riders who like a freestyle influence—park laps, side hits, and cruisy all-mountain skiing.

Masterblaster — 99 mm Underfoot | Responsive and Precise

With 99 mm underfoot, the Masterblaster offers strong edge grip and a lively feel. It’s great for carving and firm snow while still able to venture into mixed conditions.
Best For: Skiers who want something energetic, quick, and confident on frontside terrain.

Best Friend — 118 mm Underfoot | Smooth, Floaty, and Freeride-Focused

At 118 mm, the Best Friend is built for soft snow and deeper days. It’s wide, stable, and has the kind of float you want in freeride terrain.
Best For: Powder days, bowls, trees, and anyone who wants that surfy, stable platform in soft conditions.

Vacation — 104 mm Underfoot | Versatile and Fun

At 104 mm, the Vacation is one of the most adaptable skis in the lineup. It’s playful without being flimsy and steady without feeling stiff.
Best For: Skiers who want one ski that can handle a wide range of conditions and terrain.
