I went to wax my skis earlier today and noticed a space between the sidewall and the topsheet that appears to be larger than normal. Ive used the skis two days for some normal park laps but I haven't had any significant falls or large impacts. My question is are the skis delaming, could it be a factory defect, or are they totally fine? They are Line TWalls.

It looks like they might be. Take them to the shop that you bought them from and have them look at them.

don't take them to a shop !
fuck shops

its a easy fix especially since yours is small.
get
c clamp
flat edge (wax scraper, piece of hard plastic or metal )
epoxy

put your flat surface (wax scraper) on the base of the ski. fill the de lam with epoxy. quickly after get the clamp and have set it in the area of the de lam and and clamp the shit out so the ski so it goes back to the proper position and let dry.

clamp
ski
flat edge
clamp
have it setup in that order

they would probably warranty that ive warranted delams but they were pretty big i didn't catch it till it got big.
2 times is kinda soon .

email them take a picture just send a picture and explain whats going . be cool about it is the key for working with warranty .
don't fix them till you hear from them they might not want you to if they want em back

They're lines, most lines are unreliable and delam easily.
