lusch0They’re definitely not the world’s most durable ski but have made major improvements over the years. I think it’s a good option.
slauccualdo you have them yourself? or can u js tell me how long you thing they would last if you had to take a guess.
lusch0Depends on how hard youre skiing them. Any ski will get wear and tear with a beating. I'd put it in the same realm as the durability of a bent chetler? not sure, don't quote me
BallClapperBentchetlers are insanely durable. Have absolutely munched on rocks, trees and all kind of shit with no core shots yet. Topsheet has minimal chipping. Before I had them mine were skied by a 230lb ex x-games ski cross racer and total freestyle machine. 3 years in the park, backcountry and yeeting huge hits inbounds. I ski similarly and have had no issues.
slauccualIm looking for some new skis and i want something softer for the park but still somewhat stable for bigger jumps. I have heard that surface durability is really bad but all the comments are from multiple years ago. If these are not a good option some recommendations would be good.
BallClapperWe talking about the 120 or 100 - 90?

skippaagthe 100s? I’ve heard that they fall apart when you start throwing them on rails.
