so...after 3 days in the park, the edges of my bangs completly seperated from the wood on the tail, and now there is a mamo-crack in the base. I bought them so they could last in the park...and i want to know if this is happening to anyone else? or is it just defected

i had a horrible edge separation in my tail also, along with and edge crack underfoot that blew out part of the sidewall, and a crack under the binding where the screws are. for some reason i got talked into getting another pair because they were cheap and first day out i bent one of them.
