got a pair of LT's off the clymb a while ago, they seem to actually be well made skis but like others have said i couldnt see them lasting very long considering they had their riders on skis that were a couple years old, doesnt make sense at all to me

I got my new 9ths last week. They just suck at doing their website.

Still going strong though. Shane is a super sound guy.

Deffinitely on a decline at the moment. They cant afford to send their riders stuff, so a lot of them left. I also believe there were rumors that they owed some athletes money.

True, They were big in Europe for a year back in 2008, then some shit happened with reps etc.. and our shop couldn't even get hold of any. But they just relaunched with a new distribution company in Europe and so far the guy is pretty sound. Hooked me up so can't complain to much.

But for me I've had 9ths since 08 and they are some of the most durable skis I have been on. I went through 4 pairs of Armada JJ's in '07 so it's amazing when a ski lasts me more than 2 months haha.

Quality is unmatched. Ive been riding the same butters for 2 years. Mostly rails and big jumps. Edges are  still pristine.
