They’ll hold up pretty well.

But hear me out on this… their edges are no more or no less durable than the next guy. So don’t complain when you start getting hella edge cracks… it happens to every single ski that touches rails.

Ridiculous

PLEASE do not leave your skis in your ski rack or box on top of your car (or in your car) overnight. Bring them inside and dry them off when you are done using them. This is the number one way I have found to keep your skis in good shape: limit the amount of extreme temperature cycles your skis go through.

Continuously letting them get very cold (left out overnight) then very warm (as the sun comes up and heats them up quickly) is what causes the materials of the ski to contract and expand and that is when water gets into the core and ultimately causes edges to crack prematurely, IN MY EXPERIENCE.

Most people i know who get them for the first time end up sticking with them season after season for a reason. DM me with any other questions you have about Vs if you got any!

Cannot emphasize this enough too. Science is real and matters.

Will they hold up to abuse longer than other skis on the market, yes, but your gonna crack the edges and blow the sidewalls eventually
