KCoCMwhat about that chick in the olympics that armada asked not to ride their skis 😂
DolansLebensraumBecause dolan made a meme out of their assclown business marketing strategy.
“buy these skis if you want to do urban because our skis are specially made for urban”
i mean come on guys did you really think good skiers over age 12 wouldnt laugh at that shit?
alpinepleaseBuy Vishnu skis to support the independent business - this guy - stoked on creating products for us, for newschoolers. We all start somewhere. Most brands of skis are owned by larger private equity firms - holding groups of brands that completely contrast one another to diversify revenue. Buying vishnu appears to support this guy, putting himself out there to support skiers who get weird. Its brands like vishnu that keep the sport core, no matter who is riding them. The more rich dads, the more tendies vishnu dude gets. Heck he might even create a job for a shredder or two!

VISHNUI started this brand to reach kids on tow ropes that can only do a front 2 out of a flat bar but love to ski (me when I was 15) not cool guys with a lifetime of private coaching that think they are superior to other people because they know how to do tricks that other people don’t.
Not saying that’s you, OP, just a prevailing attitude I have noticed in ten years of living in Utah.
One day you will realize that skiing DOES NOT MATTER in the grand scheme of life and that will be a glorious day for you.
BradFiAusNzCoCaLol Vishnu wasn’t around 20 years ago.
I remember when Vishnu came on the scene. This guy I knew from MHSSC with dreads named Kale was riding them. That dude ripped on rails.
I like that kids can jump on some Vishnu’s and swerve and have a good time.
My buddy and I used to do what we called “bopping” where we would have a few drinks try to ski like a swerve skier all day in the park. We called it bopping because we would “bop around” and “bop on/off features”. It was really fun. 10/10. I just suck at swerve skiing.
If kids are enjoying Vishnu, more power to them!
VISHNUAlso, if “Vishnu culture” does exist it centers around going out to your local park with two inches of snow and skiing on a park bench. I’ve seen more of that in the last three years than ever before and I think that’s neat.
dwt802that’s so dope, my homies and I used to do “magnus laps” where we’d do basically the same thing, just swerve around everywhere from getting off the list to back on. Typically happened when we were too high to ski properly lmao

mattpaul611No I get it, and I think I worded this wrong in some parts. It’s not the fact that kids are riding the skis, I thinks it’s dope getting kids on skis no matter what but from my experience at my local mountain, it’s the kids that aren’t the best at skiing but are obnoxious and think that they’re unreal at skiing trying to be someone that they aren’t. I’m always down to help kids learn a new trick in the park and help however I can because it’s the best feeling. But it’s when the kids ride around and are assholes to kids and post edits of them hitting a pvc tube to switch 40 times in one video on ig and then flame kids in the comments. There’s a lot to this sort of “Vishnu culture” and I think that it used to be a massive group of humble people helping everyone progress.
combatgoon17didn't they have a reputation for only having ppl that do weird swerve shit and can't ski from the beginning?
pinkcamo1000not sure why you're getting downvoted for this, it's 100% accurate lol
270on420outYou have a weird hate boner for Vishnu. Did Emmet fuck your girl or something?
WoFlowzIdc who rides them I’m still gonna make fun of all you edge lords
VISHNUskiing DOES NOT MATTER
pinkcamo1000this phenomenon you're talking about isn't "vishnu culture"
it's just teenagers dude, teenagers are all shitty people
pinkcamo1000I've met emmet irl he's a cool guy!
