New Skis Wear

Thats from your feet slapping together. It happens, one way to spread the wear out more evenly is by alternating what foot each ski is on.

skis are trashed...i will gladly take them off your hands

Carefully use a razor to trim off any loose topsheet material.

Then use a file and very very lightly file the corner where the top sheet and sidewall meet.

It will make this problem occur way less.

100% normal and not an issue at all. it's a thing that happens, your skis are going to bang into each other especially at that spot. it'll prob happen less as you get better but it's def also just a thing that happens regardless

you can sand it down a little and if any chinks get too deep (especially if it's getting toward the wood core material) you should put some epoxy on them to seal em up (you don't want water getting into the core material, that's one of the few real death sentences your skis can receive) but yeah no worries it's a common thing
