such a sick ski. only thing im worried about though are the graphics. since thy're screened directly onto the top sheet wont they scratch off quickly, quicker than a regular ski at least?

i actually was lucky and got my hands on a pair of fterbangs in the middle of this previous season. there really flexy and awesome chip on the sides quickly but there so durable otherwise than that. def a good urban ski.

i can't remember but i think someone said that 1/2 of the skis will have one color base (say blue) and the other 1/2 will have a green base. correct if I'm wrong though

Sweet! thanks! Its probably, because they couldn't make up their mind on the bases, the first ones I think were white based, and maybe then they were blue, and now maybe they decided to just keep them green :P not sure if that could be any close to the truth, but if it is true, that means I have some limited editions  haha OH YEA!

They actually make all 3 different size skis with the 3 different color bases. They can save a lot of material by taking one full piece of p-tex, then cutting the LINE symbols out, and replacing the symbol with a different color which was cut from yet another full length piece of p-tex. sorry if that was confusing but if you think about it it makes sense.
