i bought skis online monday and i got them today and just took them out of the box and there still in laminate but when i looked for cracks or scratches i cam across a weird bulge in the top sheet at the top of the ski. interestingly it was on both skis so perhaps it is a small crack only exposed on the top sheet surface because in the side profile u cant see a crack other than a bulge in the topsheet. the bulge is near the top of the ski so it wont affect binding mounting. wat do u guys think i should do return them or keep them?

the pictures are not very clear, because you were holding the camera too close, and not in macro mode, or whatever it is. i would say send them back. when you get them back, it feels like you just got free new skis. its such a nice feeling.

use them; if they break or fall apart, then warranty.

the weird thing is that it has the exact same problem on both skis. can't tell if its a crack or not but i doubt it. it looks like just extra topsheet but im sending it back anyways cause im not taking a chance
