You need some specifics. What skis are you thinking about? weight? height?what you ski?


I had the Scratch FS WRS's from 07. I liked them a lot. They were very light and they carved really nice. The edges broke after one year though. I think they are the equivalent to the S4.

I'd most definatley take Rossi over Solly, unless you want your skis falling apart all the time.

I think he may be talking about a Rossi and Salomon Rep, not sponsor.  Go with Rossi, my friend has Ghettos and he likes them alot and he is about your weight but taller.  Rossi has always had good quality from what I have experienced.

Rossignol has been making skis forever, I think they know what they're doing. Plus their new site is up.

As far as Salomon... They have had major durability issues and I am a victim of that with my Threats.... but I know many people who loved their suspects before they broke haha. I no longer trust Salomon so I now ride Line, but Rossignol has always been out there as a solid company.
