I really wanted some of those skis for Christmas! My father refused to by them for me becuz of the name! Lol. He thinks it is disrespectful to Muslims (who cares) or something. Lol. Anyway I got some money from my grandma for Christmas as well has $$ from shoveling snow. Haha. I was thinking about getting some and maybe a hoody. Does anybody here have experience with these sticks or these guys?

I heard that they do drugs and party lol I dont really support that but the skis look really fun. I just dont kno if I should buy them and offend the Muslims also my father might be mad cuz he is always mad. Lol. but what do they ski like?

Thanks!

VISHNU
Posts: 593 - Karma: 21,789
Hi, I can help you with these questions. Firstly, Vishnu is part of the holy trilogy of Gods in the Hindu religion. We were inspired to call the brand that after reading a Hindu holy scripture called the Bagavad Ghita, wherein Vishnu is "the protector of earth, sent to restore balance." We feel that our outlook on the skiing world matches up with that idea in a sense: we want to restore order in what we feel is a dysfunctional and broken industry by offering quality, affordable products.

So you see, we didn't name the company Vishnu to mock or appropriate a real deity, but rather to show appreciation for what Vishnu represents. That being said, we are 100% not a religious organization.

As for our skis, they are super durable and extremely fun. We wouldn't push the street skiing aspect of our brand like we do if we thought they were going to fall apart. I encourage you to watch our videos and see them in action for yourself

Thanks for your interest, show your dad this post and perhaps he will change his mind. All of our products are 20% off right now which could help as well.

Speaking as an insider, i can say that VISHNU does in fact party, and much than you.

My first thought. Vishnu seems tight and bomb proof so far and I haven't heard anything bad, send it.
