BradFiAusNzCoCaI really hope these guys are being paid by sego but I like the Chronics. Fun skis for park. Generous camber and soft tips and tails. Really interesting feeling. Energetic but forgiving. Really like it. Not the best ever for all mountain but not bad at all. Overall, I find them very fun skis for the price. I’m a big fan.
edit: I just realized you’ve talked/asked about chronics before. Anything you have questions about particularly? Maybe that will help more

animatorI’d be hesitant to say it has generous camber, especially when compared to the old one that was full camber.

Frenchmayo1287I was just concerned about their park ability because in the NS review it is said that it is not a park ski
Frenchmayo1287Do you have a video of you flexing them because I have never seen them getting flexed.

BradFiAusNzCoCaIt’s pretty generous camber with minimal rise. I’m gonna fight you on that one. Cant compare to full camber because only certain skis have full camber now. I had some full camber skis not too long ago and my Chronics might even have more camber underfoot

SavageBiffI have the full cambers and they are not actually full camber, they have rockered tips and tails it’s just short, and abrupt almost no splay. the camber profile is still the same in the new models the difference is in taper giving a shorter EE and they are softer. The ski has lots of pop bc it’s all wood with substantial camber height, it’s balanced and a lot of fun all over the mountain, nose dives like a whore in the pow tho.
It’s not a park ski, it’s more all mountain park capable, none the less, it’s a great park ski, slightly softer ARV

vishnusidelipperI think thats a little bit misleading. they are more park skis than all mountain in my opinion. (i dont have a pair but i've skied them in all conditions)
BradFiAusNzCoCaNo. They’re not with me at the moment either so I can’t send a video.
I would agree with this. I think the “all mountain park” is a way to sell skis. They are way more park than all mountain
Frenchmayo1287Would you recommend it as a beginner first ski, i can 180/360 safety and mute and also a 540 from time to time, I ski east coast, I intend on skiing 8515 (park/all mountain) would this fit me because the only other ski i m also looking at is the magnus 102. Would the chronic fit me or the magnus be a better choice.

BradFiAusNzCoCaI would say yes they are good for that. They are forgiving with the soft tips and tails but supportive. So they are a good mix to learn on that you can still progress with. Also, the price is cheaper. I think it does what they intended to do really well for the price.
Have you demoed skis before?

KentuckyHillsDid you mount your chronics dead center or recommended?
BradFiAusNzCoCaI mounted them -1.5cm from center. I read on a thread here somewhere where someone from Line was saying that’s where they like to ride them. I think they’re pretty fun there
KentuckyHillsSweet thanks , You ski mostly park with them at 1.5 right
Frenchmayo1287What is the general opinion u guys have on the Line Chronic
SavageBiffSoul riders, menace, rmu Rippah
DANNY_THE_SKIIERMine broke after 3 months of use never buying line again
