Line Skis Warranty?

I bought Line Blends last summer and have used them for a few months, about 15 days of skiing. These are the results:

The other ski’s bottom and sidewalls are completely disconnected from the edge under the boot. The edge crack is probably result of that because I did detune the edges heavily.

On the other ski it’s pretty much the same story but here the edge has cracked completely, even after heavy detune. As seen on the photos, even the sidewall is bended.

I haven’t done anything unusual that should cause this type of disconnecting of the base and the sidewall. I have had 6 pairs of Line Skis and they have all been in the same use as these Blends and this is the first time this has happened. Not going to lie, I don’t think I will buy a pair of park skis from Line anymore, my fanboying is done.

On the Line website they say that structural problems like sidewalls and bases disconnecting are acceptable for warranty. Do you guys think this is acceptable for warranty? I will definitely try.

At least I have my old Chronics as a back up…

I've had 5 other pairs of line skis (4 chronics and 1 sfb) and they have held much longer. Idk. Other people have these blends and they've skied them for over a season. Might be a bad pair. Line Skis aren't known for durable skis though, and neither is Faction. If I was looking for a durable ski I wouldn't buy from neither of the brands...
 
Ridden 3 sets of blends so far and that is definitely not normal. I bet that will be warranty my dude, dont give up hope.
 
I deal with K2 Sports warranty department all the time and I'd say you have a good shot at getting these replaced. While there is noticeable wear from hitting rails, the sidewalls should not be splitting because of it.
 
That almost looks like a de-lam issue, they'll definatly notice that on the bottom of thr ski where the base is coming apart. I'd give that a pretty High succes percentage to get a new pair of skis, or in store currency dependant on your shop.
