thanos7thstonersuper curious about getting vishnu keys or wet+ I'm way 110lb wondering if you guys who ski them think I will still be able to butter them cuz buttering is way fun.
SlitherySnakeIf you’re only 110 I wouldn’t worry about the plus or keys, I would get wet and if you want to hit some cliffs then wide

hegleezyThe wides would be difficult for him to ride. At 110lbs I’m assuming he’s shorter than 5’8 and probably pretty young. A 177/106 ski would be to much to control and challenging to maneuver.

thanos7thstonerjust worried about washing out on bigger hits, and I have all mountain/powder skis for cliffs
SlitherySnakeyeah tbh i would vote 177 wide or wet + based on that info
iphone18Wet + 👍
wide questionable I would wait until get heavier and stop growing first just because it’s 106 wide

SlitherySnakeunderstandable, personally i ride wide 189’s and wet 189’s and while the wets are noticeably lighter (duh), they are also much lighter than a lot of skis with similar dimensions, and the wides are also incredibly light for their dimensions, so i feel like they both ride like they are much smaller skis, especially when it comes to swing weight because of how thin the tips and tails are.
i also love the wides because they are insanely smooth when you’re doing swaps and don’t want to jump around. they just kinda slide around on the rail like nobody’s business
that’s just my personal experience but yeah i totally get where you’re coming from
