Profile says your mountain is a 350' vertical Midwestern bump...if that is true you're good to go with the big wets. Go out there and have an excellent season.

You should be good, V’s have a load of rocker so the effective ski is more like 175cm. Because your younger and i guess a bit lighter they may feel heavy and burly at first but you’ll likely benefit from it and learn to control them fairly quick. You also might be the coolest 13 year old in the park.
