4frnt park skis are crap.

I've had a pair of switchblades since Christmas and I now have 14 edge crack and really close to losing my edge under foot on one ski. Now I know park skis are gonna get damaged over time but really I've had these skis for a little over 3 months. If ur gonna make a park ski maybe put a little stronger and bigger edge on them. This thread is just to tell people not to buy 4frnts if they mainly hit rails like me. But other then that they are a pretty fun ski.

Well I originally was supporting you and stuff but you are just a prick. I can guarantee I hit just as many rails as you AND big jumps. Don't act like you are the best skier out there. You got a bad pair. My switchblades are holding up perfectly fine.

True statement.

It's important to remember that people like me are talking about their poor experiences. Obviously not every ski they make is a piece of crap, but unfortunately for me it seemed like the standard occurrence. Glad you've had luck with them, that other kid is a douche.

I'm sure u would say that but today I just lost about an inch of edge under foot so.. Don't try to defend a ski that clearly has durability issues and yes edges get cracks and pull out over time when u ride park but no real park ski has that issue after only 3 1/2 months so don't try to lie. 4frnt park skis are BAD ok.

You got a bad pair kid. Bitching about it isn't going to change that. 4frnt makes a solid ski, your opinion isn't going to change any of ours.

I only made this thread to warn people about my bad experience with 4frnt PARK SKIS I wasn't trying to make people listen to me but if u wanted to listen to me then that's cool and I also wanted to hear if anyone else had the same problem as me so if I sounded like a dick while trying to defend my opinion sorry

LOLZ. I had a pair of TNK's for 3 full seasons that I couldn't get to break or have edges pull out. I was TRYING to break them so I could get switchblades and it just wouldnt happen. The TNK's are still intact, so are my switchblades Ive had for 2 seasons, because I know how to take care of my skis. Good luck finding something better, there wont be a ski that doesn't crack if you treat them like shit.
