Yo, yo. Got a deal on either Volkl Dogens or k2 Fugative's, both 2007's. I ski at Lake Louise so they gotta ride out of the park as well. FIGHT!
 
The dogens are all right.. untill they start to chip like crazy, delam, or the edge rips right out

i had last years dogens edge ripped out after 3 days i think, and they looked like shit cause they chip soo easy

got this years under warrenty.. they did hold up longer then last years but there delaminating at 3 out of 4 tips and mine are just tapped up right now cause when they got sent back last year i was out skies for a month so im just trying to keep them as long as i can before sending them back

dont know much about the fugitives but im sure they are better then the dogens
 
for lake man...there both not going to be that great

size, weight, and height could help in choosing the less shity one, also how much park and all-mountain/pow do u do?
 
Sweet. Thanks, didn't realize that Volkl was still having problems with this years Dogens. Funny how all their other skis are bomber. I just want a fun, short ski for when the snow sucks. Looks like I'll get some Fujatives to mess around on for the spring.
 
Yeah Chuckless! I have the Mojo 90 and they are boomproof. I'd recommend them as well for bigger ski hills that don't get major snow and can ski anything, including park.
 
ive had only one problem with my dogens this year and that was because the shop fucked up mounting them. Ive skied about 50+ days this year and rode them pretty hard and they are holding up pretty good. besides the fact the topsheet chips more than anything else i have ever seen
 
yeah, topsheets chip... some people have delamming problems

I read that the Dogens are made in China where the rest of the skis are manufactured in Europe... which is why the quality isn't as good & why Dogens are sooo much cheaper than the Karmas. Anyway... good luck
