I dunno, but mine are sick... a bunch of sidewall chipping though but that's because I was eating shit a lot trying to learn new things - doesn't affect the skis at all though.

i am not speaking from a first person experience so dont base any decisions off me. sorry i didnt say that before. But i have also heard they are light, have a low swing weight, and have a medium flex.

First of all, they are very flex and light. They are the best skis I ever had.

BUT: I bought them 2 months ago and they are completly ruined, both bases broke and the edges cracked at atleast 15 places.

Oh right that's another thing... Durability and likeability seems to be a case by case basis... In other words, some people think they're the sickest skis ever and are bombproof, and others think they're pieces of crap and break in 10 days. I couldn't tell you how durable they are though, since I've only got about 5 days on them, but they feel like sick skis.

Dont hate on this guy. He wants to know how a ski holds up and theres no problem with that, at least he knows where to put a thread. Something you cant do.

CONSTRUCTIVE.dumbass.

i have not ridden the skis, but having heard a few people asking about durability issues, maybe findout how Atomic treats the above poster who basically broke(?) their pair. and have a second choice for a park ski? volkl walls are almost teh same?(lolz at whoever freaks out i just threw a sym. ski out there)

Yep, they are so fun to ride, I think that I've been unlucky and that I got a shitty pair. It depends on what kind of skiing you do, I only jibbed with them and I really loved them. If you have a second pair for urban and that you will only ride them in the park or pipe, you won't be disapointed. (Sorry for my bad english)
