Maybe, maybe not. If you really care about those skis, take them to a shop. If they say no go or your willing to experiment, then just try to find a way to secure it back in place.Looks llike you mighta cracked your sidewall. If you can clamp it and it goes back in to place, Find some super high quality epoxy that you steal from a ski factory or something and glue and clamp that shit. I don't work at a shop, that;s just what I would try. Might work for a questionable amount of time.

Edge will just keep ripping out. Looks like you blew out the sidewall also.

take it to your shop and see what they can do. if not you have 3 options.
1.new pair of urban skis
2. part of a new chair/other shit made out of skis
3. a lil bit fuller trash can

Epoxy and clamp it. Similar thing happened to my skis. I wish I had tried putting a screw in sideways through the sidewall and into the core. Sounds like a good idea right? Try it and tell me how it goes
