I have owned dynastar skis for a while. I really liked my candides and decided to buy the trouble makers afterwards. I really like the way they ski but I have issues with their durability. I blew out edges on both pairs of skis. I am tempted to buy the new troublemakers but I am hesitant because of my past experiences. Does anyone no of a twin tip that is durable and performs as well as the tms. How do the PES and Karmas compare. Any advice?

PEs and AR5s would be my two recommendations if you like TMs. Both are a tad stiffer, but not too noticably

The Karmas are great skis. They are way stiffer than the TMs, but once you get used to them you'll get the same amount of life and pop from the Karmas (maybe more.)

You'd dig the Ar5 if you wanna go with a similar flex or the MadTrix if you want a little stiffer ski.
