Do Line Blends last?

Thinking about buying the Blends for next season. Does anyone have them? Just want to know how they ride and if they last...

still might get on3p Kartel 98's.
 
everyone on here will tell you kartel 98's but I like my blends. They are soft and fairly light, I would definitely recommend them for a wide noodly park ski that can cruise around the mountain. I've been riding them around the mountain and in and out of the park a decent amount and yet to have anything happen to them.
 
hi i am new at park skiing i can hit a 360 and pretty much any rail i see, i am 13 and at the brink of adult skis and was wonder the best possible park skis for me.
 
Line is a great company, but I don't trust their skis. Everyone I know who has Lines could barley make them last one season. We ski like 70+ times a year, but still, fragile skis.
 
If I'm honest whether or not a ski lasts comes down to how you look after and use them, so if you look after them well then the likelihood is that they'll last. Between the Blend and Kartel it would more come down to whether you want a buttery, playful ski, or a ski you can charge super hard through anything
 
Got a pair of Blends this year, not sure if I would recommend. They're a ton of fun in the park, but a) they're soft af, which makes them almost unusable all mountain, and b) Not super stoked on the quality, maybe 25 days in, I have three edge cracks, and the tail on one of them is delaming for the second time. Also the bases just do not seem to hold wax, even after like one day out after waxing, they'll look dried out. Picked up a pair of Jeffrey 114s recently comparatively, and could not be happier. Build quality, to the way they actually ski, everything 10/10. If I could go back, I probably would've gotten Kartel 98s. tl;dr- Blends are fun, PARK noodles, but not the most durable ski in the game. Hope that helps somewhat.
