Cracked edge on elizabeth

So ive ridden my elizabeths 17 days this year. I've done nothing but small jibs at a-basin and copper. I just noticed today i have a cracked edge underfoot. Now i know this isn't a big deal for a ski that rides rails everyday, but there is no impact or dmg to the p-tex at all. just a clean base and then an edge crack. Should i be worried or does anyone know the durability of the edges in this ski? Because im questioning the durability of line after only 17 days of early season riding. I rode the fuck out of my armadas for a year and a half and they almost look as new as my lines.

Thanks

uhhh i have probly 17 edge craks in my invaders and no damage to the base. you shouldnt get base damage from riding rails any more than light lines across it which dissapear with a waxing. your fine man, its just an edge crack
