So i picked up this years trouble makers in the middle of january, allready a inch part of the edge has fallen out and the bottom is starting to bubble. On the other ski a piece of the edge bent 45 degrees inward on the ski, peeling up a good chunk of base. Anyone know how good the dynastar warranty is, or will they give me some shit about using park skis in the park?

Dynastar has no warranty in most cases. Dont buy Dynastar ever, they are weak and they dont stand behind their products.

most all companies stay away from warrentying rail damage. I have heard that dynastars have notoriously bad edges, though it might have been fixed. take it to a shop and see what they think. warentee is intended for defective skis, i.e., tip/tail delamination and such.

Yeah.....you don't know what you're talking about. My friends and I have about 12 pairs of skis from Dynastar and haven't had any issues with the company whatsoever. They make great skis and stand behind them--I don't know where you got your opinion of them?
That's shitty that your skis are falling apart, but keep in mind that bashing them on rails every day isn't going to do anything good for the edges. If you're hard on your equipment you just have to stay on top of damage and take prevenative measures before the problem gets out of hand. I had small delams on both my pairs of LP's but was able to catch it and fix them before anything bad happened. They still ski like new and were made in 2001.

Subject: weird bumps on bases
Hello,
I have a pair of 06/07 Dynastar Trouble Makers in 175 that have
weird
bumps in the bases near the front tip. However, I did buy them with Look
bindings that are mounted on them so I believe the warranty is still
valid. There are two of bumps, one is about an inch and a half long and
a
centimeter wide located about 15ish inches from the tip. The other is
about and inch long and located about 8 inches from the tip.
Is there anything I can or you can do about this, if you would
like to
see pictures feel free to ask for them.
Thank you,
Thomas Robinson

Well, I went through 2 pairs in 1 year, the shop covered one but they refused the 2 other ones they called it "abuse". On both occasion, the tip edges ripped from the ski. I was deeply disappointed in dynastar. Go with rossignol, the scratch fs 2004 have not let me down...and I abused the rossis
