Not super popular but the most consistantly durable skis I've been on is dynastars, with k2 coming in second and no one else even close.

Bear in mind this is new dynastars, not the old trouble makers (aptly named)

I like surfaces because I likes a bunch o rocker. One time I fucked up some and they gave me some new ones for like 200 bones so I have some loyalty even If they haven't returned my last email for like a fucking year. It's all good tho I fixed the delam with epoxy and rivets. Just got their lab ski, excited to see what that side to side rocker is like when it gets deep.

my dynastars blew out after 2 months and snapped last day of the season. my friend did the exact same thing to his the same model the same season

Surprisingly Ninthward has been the most consistent with durability and would definitely be by

Did you detune? That's crazy to me I've blown up every ski I've had but theirs, however when they do fail (about 1 season in on my last pair) they fail spectacularly

I've only owned two pairs of adult skis and they've both been K2 so I guess I have to say K2. I know people like to hate on them but they're fun and chargy, you just have to get over the mental block of having your tips look like they're trying to fly away when you ski hardpack.

I'm not super hard on skis, but my Surface New Life's are by far my favourite ski I've had. My old LL2's were awesome and bombproof as well.

I guess Surface is my favourite.
