sorta need to know information about you, your skiing, what your looking for in a ski first before anyone can really recommend anything...

I’ll mainly be in the park 80%, 20% all mnt. Love to jib around the entire mountain. Definitely more rail oriented than jumps and love to butter everywhere.

Sounds like vinshus are what you want, perfect ski for jibbing all around the mountain

So you could say that you would like the whole mountain to be your playground, couldn't you....

Well yeah Vishnus are a great super jibby option (same with another ski which a certain someone thinks of as bannable....)

from what i know, vishnu's are noodles. Extremely soft if not the softest ski on the market. Vishnu skis have a ton of rocker so you might wanna size up. I've never ridden the Bdog but I have a friend that says they're pretty good for jibbing the mountain too

Bdogs a lot heavier but more stable at speeds I’d say. I’ve skied both and had fun on both but at first on wets I looped out of a lot of landings. Once you’re used to then you’re golden however

Id say wets just for the length, they’re both pretty similar except for the width, but the bdogs feel tiiiiny even in the 180

i’m 6’1 180lb, right now i’m on 178 blends, going 180 bdogs or 183 V’s. To me, i feel like 189 would be too much
