Salomon puts a chip in them that detects the binding hole pattern and if it senses any other binding manufacturer,

KABLOWIE!!!!!

That should just about explain your situation.

YEah right. I had Salomons last year that I'd only skied for two months when they started to delaminate, an obvious manufacturing problem. I sent them in for warranty and three weeks later they sent me back my old skis with no explanation. Also breaking a ski isn't covered under warranty because it's obviously caused by the skier and not a defect in the ski of any kind.

well from your story it sounds like you could've snapped any ski doing that. Sounds like you got it stuck in some snow while going uber fast and you kept going bending the ski crazy foward probably snapping it.

i dont really get what youre saying, but i think you mean that the guy drilled too many holes in it or something?
if that is what you mean, maybe he got them remounted once or twice

What the hell are you doing skiing Salomons in the first place? send that shit in, get a new pair, and sell them off ebay and use the money to get some good skis.

Dude I've seen sooooo many different skis snap, regardless of core material. I've seen rossi squads snap, public enemies, this years karmas, gotamas, crossmax's, and probably a few more I'm forgetting about. Any ski can break, there are bad eggs out of every batch.
