I've destroyed my skis the past two seasons, and am not looking at having to buy a new pair of park sticks every year. What ski brand makes the most durable park sticks? I just want something that won't have an extruded base, blown sidewall, and ripped out edges.

graemeskiiiiiHow?


Bought a pair of skis and they fell apart super quick. They used durable materials, but they just screwed up my pair. Apparently some people got a good ski, but mine was very poorly made. Edge gaps, terrible base, detune was messed up as well.

I got less than 5 days on them. They said they would send me another pair, but communication got worse and worse. Never got my skis. And my first pair lasted 5 days like I said and they were not even fun to ride. So there went $500.

Good thing I had a pair of YLES I picked up for cheap.

Never skied vishnus but skied all the others and HGs were the most durable imo. On3p is closely followed and might be more durable but ive seen a solid amount of skis from both companies destroyed and the HGs seemed to hold up better. I also owned HGs and bought some transfers and my stingers could be used as the armor on tanks.
