i heard the s4/scratches are not very forgiving skis and you must stay ontop of it at all times is this true? does it really make that much of a difference if you land heavy shoulders or backseat?

Well is they are like S4's they will not be durable at all. My S4's lasted me one season and now i have about 7 or 8 inches of edge missing on each ski

must have gotten a bad pair, they are bombproof. i have had 4 pairs and not a single pair was in need of replacing, super durable.

ANY ski that has over 100 days on them of mostly rails is going to be destroyed...

OP, I highly recommend the Scratch. Great ski, very easy to carve on, very high build quality, and they have some of the most bombproof bases I've seen.
