dude i love my scratch FS's. I really like the flex on them. Not too stiff but not too noodley either. I like the wood core too. I don't race but they're great all over the mountain from what i've found.

by the way. if the shop didn't do what you asked you should raise shit. If you make enough trouble you should be able to get new skis out of it... and mounted where you want them.

I have a pair of the blue ones that are mounted on the line (no center :( ) and they perform well to my tastes in the park. They're too flexy for going really fast, but about right for most things in the park and mid speed anything else. I might just get em remounted center tho soon, but I'm lazy...

Have you ever seen a little kid slide back down the inrun of a kicker without going over? This is why parents shouldn't dump their kids off anywhere near the park...

that's cuz you didn't say anything. if you don't tell them, then they won't care (hate to say it but it's true).

the new topsheet is supposed to reduce stress cracks too.

i saw some used demos of the new scratches and that whole new topsheet thing seemed to do shit because i saw the same problem with the tip like all the other scratches

The white ones are just scratches and arnt as good as the scrathc fs. I got mine and they perform awsome, ive had no problems at all And my friend got his PE's mounted wrong and the shop gave him new skis.

Pressure cracks don't do anything.
It's just cosmetic.
Remember the old concepts? Allllwaayyys cracking up.
Every single pair that was sold get them.
Still a good ski.

Not wearing poles is alot like getting a blowjob from a guy...It feels good until you look down and realize you're gay.
