QuaggyHey OP, good question.
I've been skiing on Vishnus since their second release of skis (5 or 6 seasons), I've had the Wets and the Wides, both in Montana and the Cascades. The Wets are light and playful but can get a little "loosely goosey" (super soft ski) at high speeds or large landings, not the best in heavy powder, but decent in Montana powder. The Wides take the Wet and improves it in every way, still a weapon in the park but a little more capable at high speeds or large landings plus better in the powder.
You'd be hard pressed to find a more durable and fun ski for the park. T

sullivanobrien_the key might be an option, i don't know much about it but it's there only ski that's good for jumps.
pinkcamo1000dude if you are skiing at a 300 vert hill get the wets for sure. They are the most fun ski I've been on for small terrain by far. You can still have tons of fun skiing slow and doing weird jibs. If you were at a bigger mountain I might suggest a more stable ski but tbh with 300 vert you're never going to be going THAT fast lmao.
as far as durability goes, they are by far the most durable ski for the price. The only skis I would confidently say are more durable are on3ps but they're like almost double the price of wets.
