East Coast, don't get the biggest jumps around here. Not too sure which to go with and if anyone has some experience with either please let me know. 145lbs
 
Mango is 110% a better built ski, however you are on the lighter side, and from what I have heard it is not a soft ski, especially considering the lack of big jumps, the wet or plus may be a better option
 
The LORD saw that Tom Wallisch Pros and Jibskin Pants were widespread among humanity, and that every inclination of the thoughts of their hearts was only evil continually.

[6:6] And the LORD was sorry that he had made humankind on the earth, and it grieved him to his heart.

[6:7] So the LORD said, "I will blot out from the earth the human beings I have created

[6:8] But Emmett found favor in the sight of the LORD.

[6:9] These are the descendants of Emmett. Emmett was a righteous man, blameless in his generation; Emmett walked with God.

[6:10] And Emmett had two sons, Cal and Dylan.

[6:11] Now the earth was corrupt in God's sight, and the earth was filled with dullness.

[6:12] And God saw that the earth was corrupt; for all instagram skiers had corrupted their ways upon the youth.

[6:13] And God said to Emmett, "I have determined to make an end of all flesh, for the earth is filled with lifelessness because of them; now I am going to destroy them along with the earth.

[6:14] Make yourself a ski of bamboo wood; with durable edges, and a photorealistic top sheet.

[6:15] This is how you are to make it: the length of the ski 189 centimeters, its width 88 millimeters, and call it the wet.

[6:17] For my part, I am going to bring a flood of waters on the earth, to destroy from under heaven all flesh in which is the breath of life; everything that is on the earth shall die.

[6:18] But I will establish my covenant with you; and you shall take to the streets with your sons, and stack some clips.

[6:19] And of every living thing, of all flesh, shall be cleansed of all corruption.

[6:22] Emmett did this; he did all that God commanded him.

I’m not sure that the price would be worth it at that point
 
If you have the extra money, get mangos, they'll probably last you longer and not soften as much as the v's do after breaking in.

If you just need a pair of rail beaters, go vishnu. wetplus if you like carving and going fast sometimes and hitting bigger features, regular wets if your hill is tiny and you just butter around and sesh rails all day.

As others have said above, you can't go wrong with either. you'll enjoy any of them.

How hard is it to butter on the mangos? Even though their stiff they do have some hefty rocker, I've been on Arv 86, Surface Royales, and Bdogs for comparison
 
Mango is bamboo, wet is bamboo-poplar. Bamboo poplar smears a bit more with a bit more give. Bamboo wants to snap back and retain its shape. Can be a bit unwieldy if you’re not used to it. Do with this info what you will.

Think I'm going to go with the wets since I ski at a really small east coast mountain down in NS, thanks for all the input but mangos just seem like too much for what I've got to work with
