sigh so many haters on the suspect just because they never rode suspects. suspects are nice tbh, mine are amazing and hold up really well and i beat the shit out of them. super stiff though. makes for good pop.

cant vouch for thalls

suspects will be more fun, but theyll last about a week of normal skiing.  thalls will still be a ton of fun, but theyll last an appropriate amount of time.
