First day on new pair of skis and this happens...

dude, nothing sucks worse than damaging your babies. Same thing happened to me with my JJ's 11/12 season not enough snow, flying tree stump jumped out of nowhere...
 
I got head to warrante a pair of The shows last season after I had hit rails with them for like 15 - 20 days out. Had an edge just peel out of the ski on one side up near the tip for no reason in the middle of teaching a lesson. Granted I figure they felt like they had to out of guilt for having such horrible edge design. (seriously who makes skis that have 4 separate pieces of metal on ONE ski.)
 
It looks like one of the machine screws on a box was sticking up, at least that's what i've seen skis look like when they came into my old shop from that
 
exacto knife the wound so it has a nice edge, some metal grip, weld er up with some ptex and a tune. should be good to go
 
Naw, they warranted it for you because you did it teaching a lesson. If you did it as Joe Schmo you would not have gotten a warrantee for that.
 
Its not like there is a section for 'Ski failed while teaching'. I just said it peeled out during normal use after less than half a season.
 
And what I'm saying is that they warranteed it for you BECAUSE you're a ski instructor and not a joe schmoe. I was a ski instructor for two years too. I'm not hating. I'm just saying that they took your work over a joe schmoe.
 
The factory had no idea that I was an instructor. Sure my local shop did but even they were pretty sure that they were not going to warranted them. When a new pair came in all of us were surprised.
