zxk_skiiI wish I could get Vishnus but they don’t make my size (164)… well I think 😂
weastcoatThe wides are sick too. Honestly a touch softer and heavier than the wets and that was it. Takes like a day of skiing to get used to and that’s it. No noticeable lingering cons that stick around… just felt weird for me going from an 88 to a 106 for swaps, reverting around, other shit etc
weastcoatI meant touch stiffer sorry

... Did you mean 189s?
zxk_skiiWell my skis are 164cm I just wish Vishnu made some my sizing :( cause the smallest I think I saw is 169

CrunnchyPissFartActually 177, how tall are you ?
CrunnchyPissFartActually 177, how tall are you ?
zxk_skii5’5 close to 5’6
CrunnchyPissFartI see, I mean, 5cm isn’t gonna make a huge difference to be honest, you could def rock 169’s with no issues, I am 5’8 and Ride 170-177 skis so proportionally it would make sense to your height
it might be kinda a stretch but even the wet 177s would possibly work, they are soft and have a lot of rocker so they are a bit easier to control for somebody at a smaller height
zxk_skiiI think my max would be around 171 ish (imo)
but thanks for the info :)
PimpChimpinFalse, the smallest are 169, the keys
AlexHallsEyebrowYou know how we do out here‼️🚨
CrunnchyPissFartI rly wanna experience the wides too. How soft are they?
lil.Boyetried both the wets and wides. the wides are just as soft as the wets, just that they get some stiffness from the width.
they feel more stable with the longer turning and wider platform. wets are more fun though but can feel like squirly noodles at times.
pretty set on getting the wet plus on presale. only reason for not getting them is the graphic. hope they cook up something sexy
CrunnchyPissFartoh hell yea, im sold now tbh
jompcockVishnus ruined normal skis for me (in a good way I think). Tried using my Head Caddys for a day which I'd previously really liked and they felt like absolute dogshit. Even made made my dads poachers feel like a volkl 2x4.

CrunnchyPissFartV's are criminally underrated in 5 fresh inches of wet march "pow"
hunternay_10Are we talking wides or wets?
CrunnchyPissFartWets lmaooo
hunternay_10Interesting take but I definitely can see that if you’re just tail buttering the whole time basically lmao. They were a little too narrow for me when I was in powder, but it was also around 6-7 inches so that’s way too much for an 88mm waist anyways
CrunnchyPissFartYea I was definitely underskied but I had a good as time nonetheless

PimpChimpinThat’s cuz they’re not designed for pow 😭 that’s like saying your 130 mm underfoot is bad in the park, like yeah? Duh?

CrunnchyPissFartY’all I mean UNDERRATED , like they lowkey slap
PimpChimpinOh, lol. I can’t turn in pow at all with mine
hunternay_10I’m getting wides on Friday so hopefully that will help the issue a lot
