Yea so stuck between the bentchetler 100s or Vishnu wides. I ski about 60% all mtn but will probably ski lots more park this year. I’m 5’7 140 if that changes anything and I’ll be skiing north east resorts. Thx for ur help

Idk about recent years, but bents have been known to get destroyed after a few days in the park. Although they seem very fun, I don't think it's worth paying for instant delams.

In general, I'd always recommend supporting the smaller ski companies over the bigger ones in a decision like this. Atomic doesn't need your money to exist, but brands like ON3P, moment, Vishnu, surface, etc will benefit more from your dollar and provide more value to the part of skiing you love.
