177 or 183 vishnu wets

183 is fine, rocker profile makes them ski shorter.

You’ll definitely be thankful for getting longer skis

Don’t be dumb. 177 is the right size for you, you will be wasting you money with larger skis. Seeing as you want a playful ski why get ones that gonna be too long. And that size difference is a lot on the slope. Additionally I don’t think Vishnu’s are that good. Something about being perfectly symmetrical makes them ride weird for me. Maybe that coming from an ARV 96, but when I tried the Vishnu’s I didn’t like the ride and how unsupportive they are. I am basicaly the same size as you, they won’t support you especially if you like to ride jumps. I would say get Armada, I don’t think they are beat in quality or ride. If you take away anything don’t get skis that are too big and seriously consider possibly getting slightly more supportive ones.

The skis aren’t too big. They also are very supportive.

Long skis truck, short skis suck. You will be fine on a 183 this guy thinks they aren't supportive because his are too short. They have tons of rocker so they ski super short.

yeah i went with the 183 thinking ill be happy with them

Don’t set your expectations to being able to hit 50 foot kickers when you buy Vishnu’s simple as that

That is what I am saying. Needless to say Vishnu's are great skis, just know what they are meant for.
