How are these skis, thinking of getting a pair but need some good reviews on them first. Is it true they are practically bomb proof. Is it worth the price

A ski cant be bombproof so don't complain if they start chipping etc because every ski you buy will do that. They do have max edge size, and hand made with nice materials in the USA. Honestly, i wouldn't set them far apart from companies like Moment and Icelandic that are also made in the USA, but every company is slightly different (I have both Moment and Icelandic skis and can tell a subtle difference between durability after a while. Really I don't see a difference between them and the 2 listed above, but overall they are top notch. I haven't ridden them myself, but haven't heard much bad about them. I base skis more on my needs, then by brand and not brand, then needs. I always go with hand made like 90% of the time and want to stick to Icelantic and Moment for a while because I enjoy mine too much
