Hi, i'm going to be going into my first year park skiing. I've been messing around with the features for the past two years and decided this year I was gonna try it out. My local shop had a year end deal and I got Salomon Suspects 08/09 and Salomon Z10 bindings for real cheap. Do you guys think they will last because i've heard about durability issues on the Suspects. But it's my first year so I won't beat the hell out of them. I have a warranty and i'm friendly with the shop owner so he will take care of me. Thoughts on the set-up would be appreciated.

you will be fine and if the edge cracks or it delams it is usually still ridable......they seem to be a perfect choice becuase like you said its your first year and you will not be beating them up to much

Yeah that's what I though, I heard besides the durability issues they are a fun, poppy ski. Thanks for your reassurance dude. Also got the warranty.

Yeah, i'm only planning on gettting one season out of them, just to learn then I might get something from Line or so. Gotta see the feedback from this season but I appreciate the help. Which bindings do you have on your Suspects?
