there really stiff and pretty heavy, durabilitys alright. If they are used for jumps and pipe, they perform really well, rails not as well

A few kids that a sponsored by salomon at my mountain ski on the pro pipes. They are way better durability then suspects and are pretty stiff. Not really very heavy.

I love the graphics on their bases, and I've heard they're much more legit than the suspects.

It seems (from my experience) that one of salomons big problems is the cores rot pretty quickly, happened to my pair of suspects, my friends pair and also a pair of 2012's so I would not be surprised if the pro pipes had the same problem.

I have skied mine 150-200 days, they have held up better than any other ski I have owned. Lots of cracked edges, sidewall damage (hitting skis together etc.) and they are still sweet, sturdy, nothing looks like it will blow out anytime soon.
