Can cracked edges be fixed?

I can't buy new skis every year.

i dont htink they can. but you can just ski them and if the edges fall off, use those skis as your rail skis buy new skis and use them for everything but rails, that might prevent the buying skis everyyear,

The last time I had a cracked edge it broke completely and about 4 inches ripped out within a few weeks.


What about warranty? These are K2's, and I just bought them at the beginning of this season. Would they help me out? I probably can't find the recipt.

my edges crack from a full day of park skiing, and then they crack more the next day, untill my edge is just one big crack and it dissolves.

use epoxy and clamps to keep the problem from getting any worse.

nah it's pretty clearly rail damage, unless it isn't under foot then maybe... still not likely though.
