last year it was completely true. apparently the factory workers thought they were getting paid by the ski and not by the hour so the skis were very poor quality. This year theyve fixed everything (apparently...) but yeah, theyve had problems in the past so its your call

i'd like to note that problem was only with the invaders and not lines other skis. if your worried with the invade, go with the chronic.

yes, just buy the laminating paper at office max and surround your entire ski from tip to tail. infact, laminating your bases is actually better than waxing them, just be sure to staple it to your base.

The Jr.s don't delam but the adult model does. If you get the adult model and it delams melt it and then press it to the base really fast. Just melt the very tip where it delams and you don't want the actual lamination to catch on fire Just melt
