i broke the public enemys on a 4 foot jump. the tail snapped in half. ive had trouble makers for over a year and i have had no issues so far.

oh yea if the edge pulled out that soon you dont know how to slide rails. and chances are if u were on another ski it would have happened too.

there's a reason its called snowboarding......it's snowing!!!

PEs are nice but they chip and scrape really easy so they'll look like shit after a week

i have an old pair of concepts (the jungle ones) and the edges are about 45ed but still in the ski. i wouldn't say they had edge probs.
elans have edge probs. i skied em for 2 years and 3 of 4 edges came completely of of the ski. it was insane.

i don't get it. how can some people think the tms are soft and some think there stiff? some think the blow and some think they rule? how can a ski be so imconsistant?

I ride the TMS and have demoed the PEs. I found that the trouble makers are lighter. Both skis do groomed runs the same. The TMs have a wider tail, so i found they can pull you out of bad landing easier than the PEs. The PEs felt more solid, but the TM has held up for me so far. I found the TM to be a much better park ski since is it light and good for crap landings and carves the pipe well. The skis perform equally on groomed and moguls and such so i got the TMs. I live i nthe eats, so i can't comment on the pow' skiing.
