Liberty skis

I'ev had my morphics for three seasons now and they're still holding up super well. If you centre mount them and go huge on jumps then they will delam pretty quickly due to the bamboo core but they're super light, nimble and fun. If you can get a good deal go for it.

In your opinion, why does their hybrid bamboo core cause delams? ON3P uses a 100% bamboo core vs whatever minor ratio they use, and I'd just think there would be some correlative durability issues if this was truly a durability factor.
 
As I mentioned in my other thread I've been on Liberty exclusively for like 6 or 7 years now. 100% by choice. For a reason. Super poppy, super durable. I currently own antigens, hazmats, and double helixes. Love them all. I would highly reccomend Liberty.

I'm not too sure, I just got told when I got my bindings mounted at Larry Adler before the season started here in Aus that there's a good chance if I went too big on some jumps 50 ft+ that they would delam. Haven't had it happeend yet which is good though

I think he might have been joking. Whatever the case, there's a lot of evidence against this, even contrary. Bamboo is great stuff, there's a reason ON3P uses it, as well as DPS in their high end models.

Or maybe my centre mounting my morphics causes the problem since they're not designed to be centre mounted. Either way, still holding up pretty nicely.
 
Bamboo wont cause a de-lam, poor construction will. Ive had Morphics on the past and they were pretty well put together for Chinese made skis. Are they a higher end Volkl? No. Libertys mountings on the top sheet go from Centre to traditional, I mounted mine with Marker Schizos that suited them quite well.

A few things I found on them; they ski short, and are shorter than advertised, my 181's came in at 178. They do not cope with speed on hero snow, the cores do not have a huge amount of lateral rigidity and at over 40+ mph turn into noodles. I have GS skis for groomer days for a reason after falling for the marketing BS that these are all mountain skis, there not.

The core material is not going to cause delams. If anybody has contrary proof of that, then go ahead and speak up. Rudy knows whats up.

That sig is god status
