I should know better by now, but I'm gonna do this, just to see who does/doesnt agree with me.

I'll never buy line, I know they got bought or whatever by K2, etc, but I wont touch that ski company until I know all the quality control folks that work there have been fired. I've heard way to man stories. This recall of the Pro and Fly skiboards makes the second time that an entire model has been fucked up in a big way. They are the first skis to delam, I know of at least 2 that did just in my area, and whos Bacons had a ski with a different back tip height on one ski, which delaminated? I guess my point here is, how many times does a company have to fuck up to lose its rep? So am I the only one who wont ever buy Line skis?
 
ill buy line all day they make dope skis....ive never had a problem ...my boys been skiing this years invaders hard all season and has had no problems
 
You are ignorant. There was one big quality problem which was acknowledged by the company and well warrantied. Other than that, guess what, skis from all companies delam sometimes, and usually it's from gross misuse by idiot kids trying to do things like tip stands.

I've had 3 pairs of Lines and they've all exceeded my performance expectations and been very reasonably priced. Also, all three outlasted my more expensive Rossis. I've been satisfied by 3 Line purchases, and I would buy them again. And most importantly, MY OPINION IS BASED ON A LOT OF PERSONAL EXPERIENCE, NOT RUMORS I READ ON THE INTERNET.
 
I have mixed feelings I guess. I've ridden 2 pairs of lines, and still have them, and they're still useable after serveral seasons of hard skiing. My Gold Chronics are 3 years old, I've used them for 2 1/2 seasons, and they still look new. I'm not super hard on my skis cuz I don't do a ton of rails, but I definately ski hard. I'm convinced these Chronics are bullet proof, they've handled some very gnarly stuff. And the 1260s that I own have held up perfectly well over the years. They're now my backyard ski mostly because they're too short, but still very useable. 

Then again I've heard all the horror stories, so I'd be hesitant to pick up some invaders. All in all I think Line is a dope company, and I suppor them.

 
If I do, I dont care, and its because people are assholes. Line does make sick stuff but I was simply stating my opinion, that I should have a right to, and asking if anybody agrees. It basically a yes no kinda deal, not a "your an asshole" kinda deal, ya dig?
 
I've had 3 pairs of lines, all pretty old school models, and I have to say I've been pretty satisfied each time. Only one pair has delamned and thats after 3 seasons of heavy skiing until they were urban condition. Definitely an innovative company and it was cool before they sold out. Hope to see some improvements now that K2 owns them.
 
Last year's prophet 80s are holding up really well for me they are sick skis and all my other Lines that i have owned have been sick, durable skis, but i guess some people do have problems with Lines
 
Every LINE ski I've owned had been awesome, and it's stupid to base an opinion on an entire company from things you read on the internet, yes the first gen. Invader had some issues, and LINE admitted the problem, plus they warranty their product better than any other company out there, people have sent in skis for warrenty that were discontinued and they get back newer, more expensive models. My Mike Nick's were a sick all-mountain/park ski, and my Prophet 130's are amazing skis and soooo much more versatile than you'd think. I've never had a delam or any other issues with my LINE skis, they hold up great and they are easily the most innovative ski company producing sticks today, they have designs other companys wish they could have thought up. Stop the LINE hate.
 
Line skis all day everyday so ppl you know had shit luck, send em back they'll hook you up, plus if the guy with bacons couldnt tell the tails were different sizes when he bought em he deserves it
