Detuning Vishnu’s

[SofaKingSick]

Yea, good waxes are not cheap. The new FFC line is not too expensive though. I don't sell the stuff, I'm just a user.

though i wouldn't be surprised if they found enough of the stuff in his house to attempt a trafficking charge amiriiiight

Ha ha! I did get a lot of waxes to test. (free), but that's over, now I have to pay to play!

What I have is locked up in a safe within a safe, within another safe, then I have protection as well, so don't try anything!

Saw this and thought it was recent and got excited, anyone know when vishnus usually ship?

Homie said expect them on your doorstep early November… I know it’s killing me too. What top sheet did u get?!

Dominator Jacques has good tutorials to reference but they are very long. I messed around with detuning a lot last year because I had some Völkls that 1) I didn’t prep correctly 2) they were edge high.

I got rid of those and successively detuned some Lines after.

You'll want a file (I used a Toko World Cup file M), gummy stone (possibly fine sand paper) and a Diamond file. Here’s a good link

I would suggest following these instructions but use a true ski file and hit it with the gummy stone after and then a Diamond file to really smooth it out. What helps too, if you can wait, is ski around and avoid rails for the first day or two so that the mountain will naturally detune the edges a bit more.

Thats just my 2 cents.

Don't trust the guy in that vid he's clueless

I think the rivers were the best of the normal wet series, the cal Carson’s aren’t bad tho. Don’t stress it foo

dude everyone was hating on the rivers at first, such the obvious choice if you ask me they're WET

Yeah I think the rivers were the best of the wets this year, but I felt the texture doesn’t have too much contrast / no Vishnu logo so it will end up looking like a solid color.

I think the goated designs would have to be cabbages, cactus, stained glass, fruit and pools.

The wides this year go dumby tho.

Hahaha!! Damn that’s tuff. I wasn’t feelin them either.. designs too busy. Happy I got the rivers. I think that’s top sheet will look cool with some stickers on it. (I’m a bit of a sticker addict lol)

That's what the deal is. You customize as you like.

Both!! Lately it’s been my own designs tho. My friend prints stickers. But typically I’ll put cool brands that I support up front, and random funny/interesting ones in the back for ppl to look at when they’re behind me in line.

As a kid I would wrap my belongings in colored electrical tape just to make it more “me” ?

Idk bro. I think they’re all very “on brand” for Vish!! The Vinny’s were fucking heat if you appreciate Van Gogh, but my friend is a Van Gogh nut (and got really hurt last year) so I just let him take first pick. I’m too hyped to get new sticks. It’s been like 5 years

Let’s not remind him he missed the color changing top sheets ?

I didn’t vibe with the color topsheets at first but now I see how damn novelty they are…

I think I was nervous about them being heavier possibly in my mind / delam since it’s a new idea. I’m sure they tested them tho

Those baddies were wet. I’m tight I missed them, totally slipped my mind. I’m not good at remembering drops. Gotta get my hypebeast level up
