you should de-tune nothing and let them wear down naturally

Why the fuck would you de-tune prophets? There is no way you are using those as a park ski. If you are, you are an utter moron.

Still, I don't think line makes the 80 anymore, and 100s and 130 are def not a park ski.

Evan they still do make the 80's and you should detune the tips from about an inch back from the FCP, you should also do this in the tail if you plan on skiing switch.

it is so you dont catch an edge, most shops will slightly detune your tips and tails unless you ask them not to, you dont want them detuned for racing though.
