Line Invaders or Chronics if you're looking for a park ski.

Pretty sure I'm gonna call pics or it didn't happen, because Chronics are one of the most durable skis out there.

If they can put up with the abuse that Will, Andy and the rest of the Line crew can dish out then they can withstand whatever you can throw at them. No offense, but if you're looking for something as small a 151, I kinda doubt you'll be putting them through a bunch of strain...

Then don't hit your skis together, simple as that.
Also, riding over rocks isn't too great on your bases.

Those both seem to be your problem.

AT HOOD, WHERE THERE ARE LOTS OF EXPOSED ROCKS... and asphalt, tons of other shit to fuck up your skis. and if you really are that hard on your skis, you're gonna be one broke son-of-a-bitch when you get bigger/better. Line has really good durability w/their skis, and equally good customer service... I bet if you wanted chronics/invaders and you rode them during the normal season, they'd exceed your expectations.

but if you're skill against getting Line skis ( which I agree are the best for lil park skiers, due to price vs durability)

go for any of these:

(plus the juvy has my favorite graphic of 09/10)
