Hey, so I know the 2010 suspects had pretty shitty edge armor. I was just wondering if Salomon stepped up the durability of the ski in the 2011 model.

Also I was wondering what's the dopest segment in Revolver?

Suspects still have edge-armour, but Salomon is made in a different factory now, so hopefully they will be more durable.

If my memory is good in the sia video, the guy at the salomon booth said that they didn't change anything in the 2011 suspects

Nothing was changed but because of the facotry change the edges are being made thicker this year. Also they dropped the retail price 100$.

If you are using these for a pure competetion ski I would recommend them but if you are using them for everyday use, look for something more durable.

To answer your second question I would probably say either Dumont or Bene Mayr (sp?)

I got my pair of salomon suspects 09-10 from dicks sporting goods for 150 bucks, not even joking. So even though i hear a lot of bad rep about these skis, i wouldn't feel too bad knowing i paid almost nothing for these

Im pretty sure they left it pretty much the same other than graphics, and on the pro pipes they took it off.
