Cant seem to find a review for the wet plus.
I have blends right now that recently snapped. I think they're a little too soft. I was wondering if the wet plus are still easy to butter in. I was also wondering if the jump from 171 to 183 is too much or should I go for the 177. I'm 5'10 180lbs. If I was to get the regular wets it would have to be in 171.

i am your height and weight and ride 183 wets, definitely not too long. 171 is definitely too short, my 183’s don’t feel long at all so 171 would be like rollerblades

word preciate the response, I definitely like to butter and do small jumps really only 3's and 5's Im thinking of goin with the cal carson wets. I like the wet pluses but im afraid they might be too stiff for me coming from the blends.

183 would be good for wets, maybe a 177 for wet+ if you want them to really snap around

I have 183 wet+, really enjoy them. 171 at your height sounds way too short.

Wet +
I'm small and light and like them better than my regular wets. The 171s feel very short.
