Was going to buy the new Vishnu wets, but don’t like any of the top sheets this year (besides sold out color changing). Anyone know what ski would be closest , especially in the camber of the wets ?

The Wet is a pretty unique ski, but the closest is the ON3P Magnus 90 (presumably even more so if you go custom and pick the softer flex).

Failing that, I'd put the Icelantic Nomad 95 next closest. That said, the Wet topsheets are pretty varied, I can see disliking one of them but all 3?

Ok maybe not all 3. But 2 of 3 for me. just my own personal taste. Maybe it’s just a contrast that doesnt help they sitting right next to one of the sickest sheets ever laid eyes on. (Those color changing). But maybe the magnus 90 is a good option for this year.

That contrast is exactly what's ailing you. Just some human psychology. The best thing to do is overcome that and get the ski that you know you want functionally. One of those topsheets will keep you plenty happy and regardless its just graphics at the end of the day. how often do you look straight down while skiing?

If you really want the wet i would just go for it cause the topsheet is less important than actual ski imo. Or if u like the wet wide graphics they prolly not too different from wets

Get the water ones, I feel like they’ll wear stickers well.

You can always make a custom graphic and use a decal. Trust me though - graphics aren’t that important. You’ll get used to it/won’t be looking down. The functionality of the ski is way more important
