Now that Vishnu sells skis in 189, does this mean my Wet 183's might as well be Volkls? Pls help having an existential crisis.

Every year the new core size gets longer. Vishnu might as well just cut to the chase and make some 230s for next year.

The core is sandwiched in the center of the ski, just above the sintered polyethylene sweetness.

Im still rocking 188 4FRNT CRJs.

Real core is getting longer skis knowing the rocker makes the effective edge shorter.

Me lol, idk why you're seem surprised. I'm 6ft so 183s are about the same height as myself. But because of their softness and early rise I wanted skis that were taller than me.

4tmnwhat does core mean

Can't believe I'm responding to this but:
Core = by the people and for the people. That's my definition, others might disagree. Referring to things as core has become an overused (and therefore not funny) meme where people are just using it as a synonym for cool. Ex "are 183s core?"
