did you buy them from a shop or online? cause if you got them from a shop a bunch of people may have just been flexing them and cause them to be like that? i dunno just a suggestion

Shits mad wack.  WHere did you get them from, because I will be ordering a pair soon.  Maybe they slipped a zero camber '10 model in to confuse people...

Yeah man definetly warranty that. Usually flex patterns in skis arent exact, but it shouldnt be noticable especially while your shredding. Call em up and they'lll hook you up.

oh yeah its a considerable difference we had 5 different people test them without knowing anything was wrong with them and they all caught it and laying them on flat ground shows one is not cambnered at all and the other has a slight rise at the waist

Ya if you use them the soft one will probably get beat in faster and probably break, since the serial numbers match it was definitely a manufacturing error.
