Edge on my Ledges starting to separate - Suggestions?

Hey NSers, My 2013 Volkl Ledges that I purchased at the beginning of this season have been pretty durable up until this point, nothing more than a few top sheet chips. Recently though, I have noted that the edge under my heel piece (probably about where I hit rails) has started to separate from the bottom of the ski. I know none of this means anything to you guys w/o pics, so I snapped a few quick ones.

Any suggestions? Ive seen a couple threads about how to prevent this, but none that really say how to deal with it. I've heard the epoxy + clamp sometimes works. Im open to suggestions. Thanks.
 
bump, had my ski shop check it out, said they couldn't do anything and I need new skis. You guys agree? Is it worth trying anything?
 
the only real solution would be to epoxy the gap and then clamp them to try to fix the delam, but they will never be 100% again. unfortunately thats just what happens with park skiing
 
To be honest with you no hate but ledges a shit skis I had a pair that fell apart and I've seen tons of people with the same ski in the same condition if the under warranty I've seen volkl send out new skis to people whose were way worse than yours
 
Yeah, I know, bottom of the line skis but still. I was hoping they could at least last me the season. What are you suggesting I do? Just start searching for another pair of sticks?
 
There's really two choices bring them to your local shop and have them repaired or just ride them due to the season being almost over and wait and look for a good sale on a new pair
 
epoxy+clamps should probably make it too the end of the season. May come apart a couple more times but as long as you repair it again each time it shouldn't completely come apart.
