KeeneoI bought them with my own money but mostly ski park, sometimes all mountain.

armchair_skierrun your wrists back and forth on the edge to check to see if you need a detune
sqeellicbicYeah it does. But if you ski more park than all mountain then you're gonna want to detune.

koenhelmkeWhen you buy Vishnu’s I’d hope you know what detuning is but I digress
DeadBMy guy bought vishnu's now hes tryna hit the back bowls
hot.pocketEvery single one of you was in this kid's shoes at some point, I was in this kid's shoes at one point.
Vishnu isn't going to survive if it's just you super core skiers who know everything buying them.
Cut the kid some slack and give a decent answer instead of just throwing shade and acting cool.
DeadBI just don't see the point in buying vishnus if you don't know what detuning is.
Plus I thought it was funny that he bought vishnus and is tryna hit moguls or some shit, he will literally eat so much shit, vishnus aren't easy to ski big mountain with.
If you want me to give the dude actual advice, fine.
don't ride vishnus get K2's or some shit. They aren't easy to ride and from a beginner standpoint like learning the basic rotations or just hitting jumps in general they are extremely soft so learning ur 720's and shit is gunna be a rough time.
But since you already bought them, that sucks man they don't magically make you good at butters.
KeeneoI’m not tryna hit moguls. I’ve already found my answer so there’s really no point in replying to this thread unless ur just tryna talk shit.

pinkcamo1000lmao I disagree with everything in this
- vishnu wets are actually pretty good mogul skis in my experience. also do you consider moguls "big mountain" hahaha
- yeah vishnus arent the best jump skis, this guy probably already knows that, nobody buying Vs is trying to trippple cork
- they're extremely easy to butter on, so yeah they do kinda make you magically good a butters
from the way you're talking about it, the only people who should be allowed to buy vishnus must be able to do a 720. What other tricks to they need to know? k - fed? backflip? lip blind 2?
stop being a gatekeeper and let people ski on the skis they want to ski. we should be stoked this homie is supporting a rad brand like vishnu. he asked a simple question about how to properly care for his skis, which is a perfect use for this website, and you're just giving him shit for not already knowing the answer.
I'm sorry it will make you feel less cool and special now that there are more people riding Vs, but I think you will survive.
DeadBI just don't see the point in buying vishnus if you don't know what detuning is.
CatdickBojanglesMy shop sharpened the edges on my wides and I didn’t notice til I took them out today. Wish I would’ve known they did that before getting hooked into turns and almost dying. Just finished detuning them.

DominatorJacquesEither a shitty tune, or you need to work on your skiing.
A shitty tune can destroy a good skier.
Having a well tuned ski is paramount to becoming a better skier.
When it is done right, it takes that part out of the equation.
Then you know whether it is you, or the skis.
Then again, some folks don't know how to ski a well tuned ski.
CatdickBojanglesMost likely both. But I feel like it was most likely the tune. Happened on another pair of skis from the same shop.
KeeneoMy Vishnu’s came in and They are saying to detune them. What’s detuning do?
asparagusSerious question, I've known about detuning for several years but am going to have to do it next year and haven't actually found any solid information on how to detune. Anyone know how to/any good tutorials on it?
