tried to put this in vishnu talk but sadly can’t. i’m riding 183 wets and planning for wide plus next release. do i get 183’s for those too? gonna ride them pretty much everywhere, park, mountain, pow, etc.

well it’s stiffer and bigger, just didn’t know whether it’d be too long or not

Well how tall are you then?

if that’s the height you like to ride a general ski then why change it unless you’re buying a completely different ski for a different purpose?

Based on your height i would definitely stick with 183. Vishnus ride incredibly short from the rocker profile and flex, even the wide plus. Going down in size would feel like you have no support. Plus long skis are steez. You could potentially go up to the 189 as well but I would only do that if you prefer a long ski and are going for style over spin to win, or hitting a lot of pow laps. Just my thoughts
