ON3P or Vishnu for next pair of skis?

i have a kinda old pair of 2016 blends that i've beaten pretty bad, what's my best bet for a durable ski to fuck around strictly in the park?

I went from blends to wets a while back and really enjoyed the Vs, super durable I do lots of rock jibs and they held up much better than most skis

Wet + is my favorite all around ski ever. My personal record for top speed switch was without a doubt hit on them. Never used ON3P's so can't say one is better than the other.

I got a pair of the wet plus with a sports car on them for this year. I'm so hyped

Vishnus would probably be a lot closer to your blends than most ON3P's

If you’re only only park and serousily don’t go out at all then V’s but if you go out sometimes the ON3P will be a lot more fun

i ride Wets and they are the most fun ski i've ever ridden. in my experience, they actually hold up pretty well outside of the park. and if you are only skiing park, they are a super fun and durable ski that'll treat ya well

second that. I rode, as do all the vishnu riders, my sticks in crazy deep powder and they surprisingly hold super well. they’re super fun on groomers if ya don’t mind a little back talk :)

Cant speak on the v's personally but i ride a pair of on3p kartel 96's (now offered as the jeffery 96) and i absolutely love them. I've used them for park laps, ripping groomers or out in some east coast pow and they've managed to hold extremely well in all conditions. Couldn't recommend them enough

Was in the same situation as you, and went with Vishnus because of price, and cuz they look fenomenal! The topsheets are something you don't see on any other ski, and i like to support "smaller" brands! I found them to be very very responsive and helpful with their customer service (i dm them on ig a few times and always replied within a few hours). I'm not saying that on3p doesn't do that, I'm just saying that vishnu does a great job at being customer friendly, which is a plus for me.

Vishnu’s if you can find them, on3p if you can’t, and moment if you want to be a real boss.
