Question about Wets

[KilaTsunami]

I’m hyped to get my V’s. 183 (River) Wets. I was reading around to see what y’all have to say about them and I really like what I’m seeing… only thing is I see “not good for big jumps” a lot … what’s considered a “big jump” ? I’m not seeing any examples or numbers. I ride Mount Snow a lot, would the biggest jump in Carintha be too big?

You don't want to learn dub 12s on wets if that's what you're asking.

Haha I figured that was the case

Would be fine on 30-40 foot jumps from what I’ve read.

60 foot is definitely pushing it.

I think if you don’t send any big ass tricks you should be fine

I also ride Mount Snow brother, you can trick Inferno on wets for sure. Now like others have mentioned you're probably not gonna be pulling quads with them, but if you look at what Cal Carson and Young Snow do on wets/wides you'll see the sky is the limit.

Haha that big fucker on inferno is exactly the one I’m talking about. To me that’s a big jump. But to someone who grew up out west, that’s probably almost light work. No?

That jump is pretty big anywhere for a public park but yeah not too bad compared to some of the special builds that go down.
