Has anyone skied these skis, and if so, how do they feel? I've never skied anything from Vishnu so I don't know how the OG Wets and Wides feel for reference. I've heard they have a consistent flex pattern that is easy to flex but also has rebound to it unlike Line Blends. Would the Plus versions be better in variable terrain than the normal versions of these skis? Lmk what you think about them if you've tried them.
 
The plus version is new this season and no regular consumer has skied them yet. All you can do it pre order from their site. The first skis are gonna be sent in mid September I think but if you want to see what they look like I think cal Carson was riding a prototype pair of plus’s with the oranges topsheet so check his insta

pretty much this, we developed the Plus series last season as a solution for people who feel the regular Wet is too soft to ride on jumps. So the same shape and overall flex pattern of the Wet, but a 6/10 stiffness compared to a 3/10 stiffness. Pre-sale ends on the 1st!

How does the stiffer flex hold up off piste?
 
Anyone tried them or caught a pair ? The season began and would be lovely to read few reviews.

I can't decide between Magnus 90 in 186 and Wet Plus in 183 (am 6ft tall).
 
I have been withholding the top sheet on purpose for the sake of "experimental marketing" I guess you could call it. I don't have many of the skis to sell and wanted to try something new; make the product a little more "interactive" and "exclusive" as you have to ask us for the topsheet personally via our DM's. Then you as the consumer interact with us, and it gets to feel a little more special. It worked pretty well, as we sold a good amount of the skis without ever actually showing them publicly.

Regardless, I plan on actually announcing the ski on Thursday since we really haven't yet. In the meantime, I've compiled some testimonials from Instagram. The Plus series seems to be the same ski except for when you need it not to be, like landing backseat or needing to go fast more comfortably.
 
I have 3 days so far skiing Wet + 183's, first pair of V's.

Never ridden a park ski with this much rocker in the tail, though felt almost similar to my Armada BDogs in front of the binding. Longer turn radius with short effective edge takes a bit of getting used to. They still smear on a dime, so tight turns are very possible. Really fun ski on rails, have yet to hit real jumps. Busting wheelies whenever is pretty easy.

Bump. Have you done any jump sesh now ? Can't decide myself to catch Wet Plus or Magnus 90 ...
 
i've hit a 60ft jump a couple times with the normal wets (183) and it was about the same as with my k2 sights so i assume you won't have any problems with the wet+

My home mountain won't have an actual jump line til after Christmas, but I did overshoot a 10 foot jump by like 20 feet landing sideways and still have no idea how I didn't catch an edge. Also feel a lot more comfortable doing tricks out of the park, and probably hit a personal switch top speed on my fifth day riding them.

Not related to jumps, but I got 2 on fs b2 and 2 on cont 4 first try, both tricks I'd never done before /claim
