I have the same skis and haven't had any problems since last year, maybe yours were bad. If it was the skis, then they will probably warranty them. You didn't land really far back or butter a lot on the tails did you?

same thing happened with my pair- snapped behind the heelpiece well within a year of buying them.

i sent them to k2, who determined the snapped ski was "impact damage" which wasn't covered under their warranty. then they charged me 22 dollars to ship the worthless, broken ski back to my house.

last time i buy k2...

if you snap a ski do not expect warranty from anyone.
