For all of you people who thought that the new trouble makers edges weren't going to be fixed you were wrong i just asked the Dynastar Team Manager and he said that they beefed up the edges made them stronger, and that they got new sidewalls too.

^^ i'm one of those people. i loved the skis... They were really fun, and kept their camber, and had good flex... but the edges were not made for rails. its ok though.

That's funny, because the company's official say at SIA was that they are not making the edges any stronger.

Sorry y'all but I'm looking at my 06 Trouble makers right now and they're the exact same as my 05's and my 04's. Don't get me wrong I love this ski, obviously, But They Are the Exact Same Ski New Graphic end of story. I of all people would love to tell you otherwise but it would all be a lie just like this guy apparantly was told. I work directly under the West coast regional head of Dynastar so consider this coming from the source. SAME SKIS...... NEW GRAPHIC. The Edges are the same the sidewall everything is exactly the same. This is also true for the Crichtons which are the same as the Phil models which are "the exact same ski as the TM with 1 extra layer of fiberglass."

So either Carmada is a liar, or Josh Novotny is. I'm going with the latter.

the BC Dyanstar rep told me, when I asked what they are doing to improve the edges, roughly quoted: There is nothing wrong with the edges, why would we fix them. Skis are not supposed to hit rails, of course they will break.

however they are not just a new graphic on the 06s. they are a different shape, way stiffer, and have weird shit on the core to make a funky flex pattern.

It seems like a lot of people from ski comapanies feel that if they deny durability issues, that the issues will just go away. To dynastar's credit, they aren't the only ones who do it.

Yeah, the edges suck, but Freeskier has had the TM as the best freestyle ski two years in a row. They've got to be doing something right. Just use some old beaters (maybe your old TMs) on rails and get the new ones. I think I'm gonna go with the Big Trouble personally.

Well please, since you are the Dynastar Team Manager, tell us what's happening with the edges. Are they going to be better next year? You do know that they suck right? Do you care? I think all of NS would appreciate you clearing this up instead of just making us wonder.

HEY! i emailed felix at d-structure.com, asking if the edges were going to be fixed and this is what he said.

I'm not sure about the sidewalls but we heard they're gonna have thicker
edges...

Later,
Felix.

First of all I am the TEAM MANAGER, not the SKI DESIGNER...do you get the difference? All I know is the edges and sidewall are being beefed up but I do not know when it will take affect... I'll be sure to let you know.
