Go with scratches, and I'm only saying that because I have a pair of 03's and the edges have yet to crack on me after many, many, many rail hits.

why are you only considering 1080s and the scratches?

scratches and 1080s are more that 2 or 300 I think, go with K2 Public enemys if you find a pair of cheap ones or fujatives otherwise.

I think he's confused on what brands make what skis.

If so, the ones listed:

Salomon - 1080s
Line - 1260
k2 - fujative




open up, we're coming inside. What's it feel like to know you're gonna die?

There's plenty of room for all of God's creatures. Right next to the mashed potatoes.
