Every year it seems like Vishnu has 1 banger graphic and the other two are still good but not as hyped. This year Vishnu outdid themselves and pulled out 3 BANGER topsheets for the wets...take a look
Bubbles, cabbage and gems. 20/21 is gonna be one hell of a season
We give an estimate to our factory then do the presale and adjust accordingly, though not a ton. Last year we ran out of certain skis and sizes before they even arrived to us in salt lake because once we place the estimate we can’t adjust a whole lot..it’s a “let us get 60 instead of 50” type of thing.
sams15Preorders are unlimited, they make the skis after they are ordered then ship them all in September.

How many pairs total do you order, and what’s the breakdown between the number of wets wides and pluses you order as well?
BagOTricksExcited to see the wet+ graphic but don't mind the wet graphics. Still pretty unique in the grand scheme of things. Still can't decide on the wet vs wet+, anyone ride both? I'm wondering how soft the + are
I’ve ridden both, both are way softer than any other ski I’ve ridden (old chronics, arv 96s, edollos, twalls, magnus 90s)
I still really want to try a Plus at some point (if my knee ever functions properly again), very intrigued by the new ski too. I'd also like to add my compliments on the graphics. Really impressed.
Mostly posting a random question for @VISHNU... why no 177 Wide/Wide+? Asking because I'm pretty sure the ski question I get asked the most via my various DMs is Wide vs Magnus 102 (/other mid-fat, recently Reckoner 102 pops up a lot)... and often it's because people want a wider ski but don't want a 183 (or at least don't think they do). I get the addition of a longer size for bigger guys but I also know for sure that 177 (+/-2cm) is the best selling length for lots of (most?) brands and similarly, that brands don't sell too many skis above a 183... so just curious really.

Is there a chance that you guys would sell out certain skis during the presale? I wanna get a pair of wide pluses but I probably wont have the funds till midway through the presale

It says those are the dimensions on the 180, anyone know if they key will be any wider on the 189? Just wondering why it would say that if there wasn't a difference

Did anyone from this 3 page thread manage to get their hands on a pre-order pair of 189 color changing wides? (Or know someone that did)
I'm looking to get in contact with one of these individuals, I've got a once in a lifetime offer for 'em.
