Fischer Warranty?

Hey, i know that people have been asking about warranties for their skis. so i was wondering about Fischers. I just got Fischer Addicts and their great skis, but by the second day on them (not even touching the park) the top sheet near the edges. it would seam like they were just beated up, but there are chips and gashes that dont seem normal, especially after two days of use.

I looked all over for their warranty info on their site, but i can't find it. i love the skis so far, but i can imagine after this season there will be some real big chips and what not, and that should happen with a brand new ski

also, they were mounted twice, i brought them in and the shop mounted them 1.5cm in front of center instead of 1.5 behind, which was a pretty pathetic mistake. i know a lot of companies (like on armada's i saw this) say that if you mount them twice, they are void.

why mount the addicts anything other than center. They are semetrical. Any ski is going to chip/peel. I have had my addict pros on snow for over 10 days of hard abuse. Anything you name it, rails, jumps, glades etc. Only a couple chips. I don't know check with your shop

yeah, their symmetrical but i wasnt only going to ski park, so i compromised by going like 1 cm back. its not big deal. but like, i haven't abused them for sure, and there are some nasty chips. i bought them online

well he took them back to the shop he bought them from and they took care of it, but fischer was real legit about it. it was kinda the same deal as the bibbys this year. they recalled all of them and gave every one some new skis. but the cool thing was that the skis were a year old and they gave him some 08-09 skis. ill look on the site to see if i can find it though
