I've had two pairs of Ninthwards. Both 08's. Both had significant core issues

A torn out toepiece and a couple torn out heelpieces pretty much sums it up. This was due to lack of reinforcement underfoot in the core of the ski.

I can't speak as to the quality of the newer models, but I know how my Ninthwards performed and I would not recommend them.

my friend has last yrs HHP and we were hitting this up box all day and then he hit it for like the 20th time and got all cought up on it and feel really bad and then we looked at his ski and he lost 2 inches of edge and and inch of missing base so deep you could see the core. it was like 20th day on them. Buy at your own risk.
