over the past season and a half i have gone through 3 pairs of ninthwards. now im on my fourth and they are holding up a little better, but soon im going to start looking for some legit skis for next year. I just want some that hold up for over 1 season and dont really delam/chip at all. I really like the old white Rossi Scratch FS WRS but i cant find em anywhere now. What skis would you guys recommend for last long and preforming great mainly in the park?

im sorry to say that i cant tell you any durable skis, because i havnt found any... all i can tell you is to stay away from moment and dynaster. From what ive read line chronics and ar6s are durable, i also am in a search for durable skis cus i already borke 2 pairs this season :(

haha that dissapoints me that your ninthward skis didnt last, i got some new rorys that i bought this summer and i really like them and i hoping they last

i've had alot of problems with topsheets and chips/delam and then at the end of the year my binding ripped out of the ski in addition to the edge coming out under the binding. but this years Nin's are holding up quite a bit better.

the skis he is tlkaing about are last years, and i think the years before. the people ninthward had make them did a super crappy job. this year they had the elan factory do it. and the elan factory also produces the 4frnts. this years are so much better then last. and then next years skis are going to be sicker.

I've had 3 pairs of chronics and loved them all. they will probably be my next ski, and if not I am getting scratches because I've heard nothing but good things.
