They are bomber. They are produced from the elan factory. They run on the heavier side but not k2 public enemy heavy. What they lack in the weight department they make up for in durability.

I think you are talking about delams and they hold up really well and imo better than anything coming from austria or china as far as press quality with delam issues. Delams can happen to any ski after a while of park thrasing but the apos I had didn't delam on me and my 4frnt YLE(same elan factory apo is from) has held up really well to compared to the armadas I had which I delamed all four tips on under a season and delamed under the nose of the binding. Also starting to show sings of minor delaming in my head johnny 94s with under a season of use.
