That really sucks but at least you had enough snow to have the opertunity to break ur skis. Thats one of the only things i like about being small. I have never snapped a pair of skis.

Thats why you don't by shitty skis with a weak core. if your serious about skiing then invest your money. Don't buy Fisher Price garbage.

No warranty unfortunately, they were 05 Volkl Karmas that had to be re-drilled once due to the binding pulling out, hence them being weak and breaking...but they were the only pair I had and they rocked. Shitty deal.

They are, but if you hit a jagged rock at high speed nothing's going to hold up. If I'd been on a weaker ski I probably would've fucked up my leg pretty bad.
