what's up NS, new acc here, would y'all ever buy a pair of v's wide+ almost new, wit a swallow for $250-300 no bindings? well I might, but I was wondering what y'all think about its performance with butters and skiing switch wit a tail like that, partly insisting I buy them as well because I can't find a pair of v's that I want at a good price in size. Although perhaps I just WAIT.

i don’t think you would notice it at all performance wise but as stated already i would recommend seeing it in person. if it isn’t done right there is a huge chance for water getting into the core and ruining it. if your past that little hump tho i see no reason not to get them. i think it’s sick.

I’d buy this for the meme of it not as my daily driver. That’s gotta fuck with the durability hardcore

ehh i mean you gotta decide if getting the skis not quite 50% off is worth it when they've been mounted, won't have warranty, and have holes cut into them. i wouldn't do it, that's for sure. almost certain it will affect how they ride and durability at some point

tell the seller if he wanted to sell them for more than a song maybe he shouldn't have literally cut into the skis for cosmetic's sake
