I'm looking at the dumont 2010's, primarily park skiing, jibs/medium sized jumps.

Thoughts?

I wouldn't recommend dumonts because those are as stiff as extremes and may also have durability issues like last years.

i  think the previous years dumonts were pretty good. the blue ones. i heard decent reviews about them but definitely some issues with the 2010s

damn, those old(blue) dumonts were so beast, and w/o edge problems.. So these: http://www.alpinesports-santafe.com/product/416/ are the exact same ski as the (07/08?) blue dumonts?

they had the number one review in freeskier BUT my friend and i combined have broken 4 pairs of samon skis in two years so personally i would go for a different ski but they got great reviews and look good too

true salomon blows big dick.. much like k2... but the 07/08 dumonts were the illest... some argued to be the best park ski of all time, appropriate for the ten eighties ten year

The Dumont 2010 are 9.8/10 in the buyer guide. So i don't think are bad as the people say, maybe they broke but the look like a dope ski. Btw if you cangrab the 07/08 Dumont i get them and they are dam good best ski i ever add. (Sorry for my english)

Well, Freeskier can't really test durability, so they wouldn't know shit about that. The only way to know will be based on the performance of their previous skis, and the reviews people have as they ride the new ones.
