what about my scratches. i bought them a month ago and today was my 2nd day skiing. i landed on a rail and my back ski popped off. i went to go get it and the edge was pushed into the core and the base was dimpled out. my local shop won't do a thing, but do you think rossi would warranty them or at least the one that broke?

you could always try..
once again - companies generally won't warranty from rail damage.

I pulled the edge at the nose out of my T-Halls on a rail, and Armada sent me Ar6's.

Warranties are for manufacturing defects from the company. Damage you cause by using them is not grounds for getting a new free pair of skis. I don't get new skis every time I get a core shot from skiing in the trees. While you may get lucky with companies like armada and line, its very rare that you'll get them replaced because of accidental damage. Skis aren't indestructible and impacts with hard objects cause damage, its reality.

This is getting to be a horrible trend in the industry, just like suing a mountain, take some responsibility for your own gear.
