In the future, I wouldn't go with suspects until they get rid of that rediculous edge armor that just helps them fall apart. Also, NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER get sth bindings unless they have the driver toepiece. Poles are dope though LOL

You put to much emphasis on not getting the bindings, especially when getting the skis is an equally bad if not worse decision...

Sell it...

Well I didn't mean for it to be so unbalanced.... I just figured that if he had done ANY research, he would know not to get suspects, whereas the sth thing wouldn't be so obvious. Whavever.

Anything "Z" from Salomon is plastic horribleness

They're light sure, but what's the point of a light binding when it's in pieces?

I laughed when I saw the Suspects. Then lol'd when the bindings came up. hahahaha

I had those bindings on my first park skis, they were fine the first year. But, last season when i actually started skiing aggressively they would break just about everyday (the break plate would get torn straght from the binding). They were just a bitch because of how fragile they were. I invested in FKS this year and i hope i don't have any problamos.

no offense but i have the z10s (older model on my old invaders) and they suck. 

Line poles are legit but poles are poles and they do cost 55 dollers.  Mine broke this season which was pretty beat.

As the suspects i've heard alot of hate on them but i've also see kids on the hill who say they love them.

If your happy with what you have then thats all that matters

Thanks alot guys for the advice and like you said i wish i'd done some more research , i just seen them and they looked amazing also i found a really nice deal for them with the bindings and they were going to fit them for free so i just got them , I'm in the Uk so hopefully they'll last me till next year cause theres not that much for me to be doing in the uk that could wreck them that bad ?

i have the suspects and theyre not as bad as most kids say they are. half the kids on here are just jumping on the hate bandwagon. they arent the most durable ski for sure, but they dont fall apart immedeantly. as for the bindings, ive had nothing but problems with salomon bindings, even the sth drivers. salomon just makes shitty bindings
