Replying to Revision skis falling apart quickly.
This is my experience with revisions over the last calendar year. Started out on the first model of the talisman, loved how they skied, 1month in started getting pretty soft on me and less stable, 2 months in edge cracks of course but then randomly someone says whys your one tail rockered, snapped the core, rode em for a few more weeks and blew 6inches of edge and a chunk of base out hitting a corrugated. Hit them up got a pair of them sent right back out to me and apologies about how they broke and even let me keep the pair to kill them. Sweet all is well, next pair I make it 21 days and then blow out 6inches of my edge underfoot and other edge was about to fall out, that's fine switch feet again and book blow out 2inches on that ski in a day. I hit them up, oh sorry we can't warranty your warranty even though it blew up in under 30 days, and we cant sell you a pair of them because we have to save the remaining for warranty and athlete use. Wut??? Ok so I buy a pair of the 2016 dimes for a decently cheap price since I broke two pairs already, the ones they say have thicker bases and edges better molds blah blah blah, well this new pair is about 32 days in and already the bases are doing worse than my talismans did during summer on hood last year, as well as i have my base pulling away from the edge on one ski and the other one has already lost 5 inches underfoot with the other ski close behind. Dont get me wrong I will ride a ski until it can't be ridden anymore but its ridiculous for a moderate park skier to blow through them this quickly, I will be getting my warranty pair again once these ones die and will be done using revisions gear. Dont think this is a flame thread on them the skis are some of the most fun skis I have ridden and are super pretty nimble just extremely disappointed in their quality. Yes I properly detune for no chance of catching, yes i can hit rails properly, no I will not be using them anymore.
