as i navigate through the various threads that all say that Line sucks OR K2 sucks OR Salomon sucks OR ...you know what i mean? ppl keep saying that there skis break after one or two runs. in my experience, i've never broken any pairs of skis yet i find that i go fairly hard on them.

when ppl say that LINE sucks cause there skis are fragile, i want some proof. could someone tell me what they were doin when the ski broke?

there are tons of threads here on NS.com that state that these skis suck and so one. everyone makes a post that they agree or that no, they don't agree. the problem is, no one gives credible evidence to back up their opinions.

so...in all honesty, could ppl back up their opinions? could someone tell me if LINE's and K2's are really that fragile?

thanks

K2's and lines are not noodles, some people just have bad experiences with them and make them sound bad. But if theses skis suck so bad and keep breaking they should be able to get them under warranty.

well i loved my old skogan pros. but i broke two pairs. the first pair was my fault though, because i smashed my right tip into a rail support and bent the tip up and it split and the core splintered. but the other time, i broke the warrantied pair of my first ones. the top sheet started separating from the edge on the third day. and i did straight rails and hit soft jumps.

people who have real maunfatuing defects shouldn't rip on the ski. every product in the world has defects because its a factory made ski. not hand made. so imperfections are bound to happen. don't listen to these fucktards, the only ski that has had overwelming problems is the Troublemakers but thats because they are a first year ski.
