Their both sick skis. I ski on the scracthes and I love them. they go everywhere adn do everything pretty well for me. Im with you, Im not a huge can of this years graphics on the chronics. Next years graphics are sick though so if you want to hold out a few months you can always go with those.

well the top link is to the more park oriented chronic, the newer chronic wide is more all moutain, either ski is sick and i've never herad of anyone have problems with either model, so it's pretty much a choice between versatility (waist width) and graphics. You should be really happy with either purchase.

^ there's a thread in here with all of next year's graphics... although i'd recomend not to buy your skis based on graphics only.
if your looking to buy chronics, you'll be happy with this years or last and i here next years will be dope too. but also look into this years chronic wide and last years pro models... all sick skis and cheaper too

i have last years Chronics, and they're great. I wasn't really digging this years graphics either. Also, how many people with last years complained of them delaming? I havn't heard of any, but a few have said that the new ones are.

It's almost impossible to be upset with the chronics, anyone who rides them likes them a lot, and they are a super solid ski in the park, i ride the 05-06 chron wides.

the 07s look like they're pre-drilled. that's pretty shitty, unless you buy the reactor binding

They are all pre-drilled for the reactor binding, all of Line's skis have been that way since last year. Too bad the Reactor sucks...

Get last years. The graphics aren't important and that's the only thing they changed.

They're great bindings. A lot of people break all kinds of bindigns every week, nothing special.
