So yeah i was looking aroung the internet for new skis and came across some lib tech backwards for a decent price. Haven't heard much about the brand so i would be glad
If someone could tell if they had any experience with those skis or lib tech skis in general.

Super fun ski, magnetraction is awesome for carving. With that being said durability is not that great but one of the most fun skis I've ridden.

Poor durability? Libtech makes the most bombproof stuff I've seen

How was the flex and what kind of issues you had with durability?

Decently soft skis so really fun to butter but didn't seem like an issue charging through crud. Durability issues i had were the ski completely coming apart underneath the boot to the point where I was able to stick my entire arm between base and core and core and topsheet. Same thing happened to my Libtech UFO 100s

Maybe if the bomb you refer to is an M80. Don't get me wrong I have had multiple pairs of lib techs and they are my favorite ski brand by far. But they break pretty damn easily.
