The skis I want do not exist

SteezarmadaYou answered yourself in the post dude. Might be time to consider a calorie surplus, weight and strength is literally everything when it comes to what you are describing. Ever wonder why Colby Stevenson can almost effortlessly butter a pair of poachers?

Misfitmonkeyyes, but no matter how much I weight or how strong I am, skis will still have different flexes to them. Being strong might mean you can butter a stiff ski easier, but that doesn't change the fact that it is a stiff ski.

Vish-shoeThe skis you want are Bdog Edgeless

SteezarmadaIt will feel much softer tho. if wets still are too stiff for you, being one of the softest skis out there, soft enough for everyone else, dont tou think you could be the problem? Just saying 🤷‍♂️ im 170lbs and i can manipulate the flex of my ARV 96's relatively easily. If i got wets or blends i would probably break them.

MisfitmonkeyI can flex my arv 96s pretty easily too
But it still doesn't mean it's a soft ski

skietedavidsonI also am a fan of truly soft skis. I would say closest thing to my 2020 royales (white with the girls faces on them?) are my J Vacations. But I felt both had a decent break in period needed

Also feel like my 189 wets are pretty stiff, haven’t had enough time on my bdog edgeless to know, do have some arv JJ116UL’s waiting to mount they seem soft

Misfitmonkeybeen looking for a super soft ski that is very rockerd, and is just super fun in the park. Im talking Stupid soft, lean backwards a little and fall over soft. The closest ski i have found so far to this criteria are my 2019 or 2020 surface royales (this is pre redesign. they made um stiffer WHY? and less rockered) I have tried out other skis that people say are super soft ie: vishnus, lines, fatypus/icelantic, 1000 skis, misfits skis, and have not found a ski that is to my liking. Reccomendations would be greatly appreciated, but I know that most likely i am looking for a ski that does not exist, as everyone on here says that vishnus are the softest ski, and they do not even compare to my old surface skis in terms of flex, and are way stiffer than what I would like. Yes I know soft skis break easier, and are bad for all mountain, but my local is microscopic, and I have no real need for a all mountain ski, as I only really ski park, more specifically railsl. Yall probobly gonna say some things like hit the gym or you must not weigh much, which is partially the case (135lbs) but even as a little kid at mabye 100 pounds I could butter my adult model surface skis. I can do butter on stiffer skis ie: my armada Thanos dogs. Im not saying that vishnus or any of the other skis mentioned are stiff, thety are def soft skis, just not soft enough for me. I just want to go back to some stupid soft skis
If yall know of anything like im describing let me know, skis these days gotta loosen up and quit being so stiff

hi_vis360Skill issue

skietedavidsonI think he is exaggerating, stiff as a 2x4 compared to other similar, maybe? My 189 wets are definitely "stiffer"/more rounded flex than my 186 vacations, 180 royales, 180 bdog e/l. The illusion of wets "being noodles" is so off

Sometimes I jokingly wonder if my wet topsheets were somehow printed on wet plus

Eli.braun98If the skis you want don't exist then make them yourself. it cant be that hard

CowboySkibopI mean u gotta break vishnus in, if u ride them for a season they will be to your liking probably.

or just find a set of Wets that are already ridden and a couple seasons old

otherwise the blend is probably valid even tho the durability is ass. They have that certified yogurt hinge technology

crf741dont know where in the world you got that idea from, if you really think wets are stiff as a 2x4 then either you have brand new wets or youve never skied them in the first place.

skietedavidsonHe says he is 135lbs, that will deff take a lot longer to break in wets esp in 189 length

crf741im 135 and 5'9 and they took probably 5 days of skiing to break in

skietedavidsonAlso, why the f are you 135lb 5'9 guys on 189s

skietedavidsonCurious what topsheet/year? I'm 180 6'4 and I would not consider my wets "broken in" yet still after 15+ days on them. They will still ollie over the moon if I wanted to
