Hello,

I was wondering if any of you have had any experience with Surface skis and dryslope or both? How would you rate them as a park ski?

I'd be riding purely park, mainly on drylsope so I've been looking at the Surface 'No Time'

http://www.surfaceskis.com/gear/park%20pipe/no%20time/index.html

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
Tom.skier

I would recommend getting some cheaper skis if you're using them on dry slope.
Maybe a few more seasons old?

Ouch!!

Maybe get a pair of Chronics for dry slope?

I wouldn't think you'd get much better durability with Surface. Maybe...

I'm not sure I will either to be honest. There needs to be a brand specifically designed for dryslope riding which are super durable or something aha
