well it can't hurt. That's a good idea no matter what ski you get really

Don't worry about the rivets, the ones i just received from them came with rivets already in both pairs, they fixed the problems that youve been hearing about, the rivets solve the delam problem, the skis are super light and poppy, probably the best ski i've skiied, definitly the most versatile because of how light they are, def check them out

i bet if you email them you could send them to liberty and they could do it for you, and as for the skis, they are super duper light and have good side cut. They are not that tough but if you get a pair form liberty with rivets they are fine. Super goods skis, and next yuo can expect to see alot of change and some dank skis

dont buy a ski you have to rivet togrther before you ride them , especially dont just drill holes in your skis , water will seep in make the wood rot then you have problems

I dont know if i would personally buy liberty's until they get all the bugs worked out of them. I know some people that ride liberty and they have broken so many pairs this year. Id wait they will probobly have the problem fixed within the next 2 yrs.

Exactly what troublemaker said. Why the hell would you buy skis that you had to rivit to keep together!?

besides rivets totally void the warrenty and that's the only thing Liberty has going for them to begin with.

I didn't say that you should put rivets into everypair of skis you buy, but it can't hurt. You could do it do any pair of skis in the world, and it wouldn't hurt. It may or may not help, but it won't hurt. So it's not a bad idea. I haven't done it to my skis, but if someone wants to, I'm not stopping him

Warranty is shot ... ok i understand but just branching off that .. If you have to put rivet's in your skis you might as well buy a pair of skis with your hard earned money thats not going to need them ( or come's with them from the factory ) in the first place.

this years hold up fine, but for next season they added a whole bunch to make the skis better, Andy Vacina the owner told me that they kept the same edge which was fine, where most of the problems were was with bindings ripping out, which mind did about after 4 months of hard use, and they did take a beating, but for next seasons they have added some energy/rubber thing into the tip and tail to help dampen vibrations at higher speeds and help prevent delam, they also added some sort of plate so where you mount the binding to prevent a rip out, and lastly they added some new kind of thing to the top sheet mostly for cosmetic reasons...but this years skis were still a great fun ski

we will not void your warrenty if you install your own rivits. As long as you dont blatenly fuck them up and are just trying to score a new pair.
