a friend of mine who was at school was just chillin until some random ass girl who he barely knew came up to him and proceeded to tell him that she was getting knew skis and was deciding between “atomic bentchentler 120s, line honey badgers and vishnus” honestly wtf like I understand she just didn’t know differences besides top sheets but thats shit was so cringe I felt I needed to share. That girl is definitely the type of person to wear dope snow or montec and have the ski emoji with a cleché quote like “the mountains are calling and I must go” in her instagram bio.

The bent 120s are a crazy good ski, but are also nothing like the other two. A fat boy and some noodles. Interesting mix. Too many people own bents. Should be an indicator haha.

Non necessarily. I could carve em when I demoed em last season. It’s definitely a beefy ski!

Fair enough, I'm just judging by their weight. Don't expect stability from a ski that weighs as much as my gloves

honey badgers and Vishnus are the only ones that are even somewhat close to the same. But it depends what vishnus.

a friend asked me for help when getting his first pair of new skis, he didn't really want to ski park and said he just wanted something to cruise the mountain with. i gave him several tips and showed him some skis.

he ended up buying some honey badgers since they matched his outfit. (he had a montec kit) later that season he borrowed some line mordecais, and said that they skied so much better.

i cringed of him the whole season. he had bought markers with 110mm brakes on a 87mm waist ski, and not been happy with how they skied. after that i have told everyone to get skis because of how they ski, not how they look.

your friend just gotta appreciate that a girl actually talked to him about the skis she wanted and also that she considered vishnu. A lot of people would just go to the store and buy whatever the fuck the salesman tells them to.
This is a great opportunity for him to impress her by helping her choose a ski

i have honey badgers and they ski really good in powder and free ride, they do their best in the park, but they chip very easily. i would defintly call them more of an advanced ski so if your not the best skiier you might not have the best expierence.

have tried some for some laps, and i know several people who had them. they have a thin woodcore, cap construction and just a poorly made ski as i have seen. i did one butter on them and i felt the ski folding under me. the hb's might be the right ski for lighter people (not me) and also for people who just want a lighter ski. but there are 100% better alternatives for this kind of ski. but i'm jot gonna judge, just saying it's not a chargey big boy ski
