DeebieSkeebiesits also nice being able to finally let a new ski rip hard after letting the fresh factory tune and edges get dulled down a bit
LOLZfajitasThese took two years to break in lol
Young_IPMCDid you ski that into a ditch?

-eREKTion-I just de-tune the shit out of any new ski I get.
casualDo you ski mostly/all park? As I’ve gotten older, I love edges. I hate skidding around feeling like I can’t reliably stand on an edge and I feel like the trade offs aren’t that big of a deal.

KevskiThe issue I keep seeing brought up on this topic is that sharper edges on rails are more likely to resist or catch and that puts stress on them and they can crack or pull out easier.
Wish I could have nice consistent edges for mountain laps but also no edge issues on rails. A man can dream.
But yeah definitely noticed my skis generally feel softer over the years. Possibly in the first couple days too? Though that’s kind of hard to say if it’s just getting used to working the new skis or if they’re actually getting softer.
