How many pairs of skis did you go through this season?

[jackdonovan]

edge is separating from the ski underfoot, gonna ski them as long as they last

also have no camber left and are practically flat without tip and tail rocker

Went through a pair of afterbangs in two weeks, ripped out a foot of edge underfoot and delaminated both tips. Then snapped a pair of volkl ledges

When I was still a teenage park skier in Ontario I went through a ridiculous amount of skis/season. It was when twin tips were new and the ski industry wasn't doing the best job at making skis that could hold up to the kind of abuse that skiing the park every day dealt out.

If I remember correctly, my record was 7 pairs of skis in 1999/00(something like 4 brand new twins and 3 old straight skis) in one season. The struggle was real.

Last pair of skis I broke were Armada JJ's, broke em twice in one season.

I just retired my Moment Bibby's after 5 years of use and abuse. I think they are only the second pair of skis I've owned in over 15 years that I've retired instead of them breaking. The other pair was the Head Mad Trix near the end of my park rat proper days.

They still make them in a 184 and a 191 if you wanted to get another pair new.

I keep blowing out my sidewalls. I have never snapped a ski, and have delamed my tips a few times, (easy fix) but I've blown out 3 sidewalls this year. The skis were Volkl Walls BTW.
