Which skis are more durable and better quality? I need a ski that will last me a while, and I heard that the candide's are pretty good quality, and that this years punx have a thicker edge and more durable materials.

Candide 1.0-
-2.5 mm edges
-stronger topsheet (still sandwhich construction)
-fiberglass to help strengthen core
-carbon reinforcing
-poplar/ash wood core
Punx-
-2.2mm edges
-one piece sidewall (suposed to increase durability)
-wood core
Overall, imo the factions are the more durable of the two, but I dont think the punx are bad durablity wise either.
All times are Eastern (-5)
