Misfit skis drama

On ankillas story he talked about how his bindings keep ripping out (he’s had 5 bindings rip out). What in the constitution make misfits do this but most skis don’t?
 
I've never ripped an edge out of my ski but tons of rail skiers have. Skis break, shit happens, I know kids who throw down on gen 1 misfits with no issues. It's a skier-to-skier thing more than anything. Some kids throw weight differently and dig their edges harder than others etc so I don't actually think it's a misfit problem, I also don't think ankilla is a bad skier or doing something wrong, maybe just a coincidence or a bunk pair
 
I don't give a shit about ankilla, but since this thread is already made, I'll add a little chirp from Sage's latest video @5:43 in
 
Idk what the constitution has to do with any of this stop making it political

lmao jk my favorite part of the live was when he kept saying “I carry” and acting tough

For anybody considering Chris and Bandana homie being in the right in this situation.

1st: They said they heat the epoxy for when they mount, which is terrible, especially with open holes in the ski. Epoxy manufacturers are actually engineers and they do not recommend doing this.

2nd: There is only epoxy at the very bottom of the holes. The main purpose of using it is to seal from water, which it cannot do if it is only at the bottom of the holes. They tried to argue that they used enough epoxy but the topsheet was completely bare. Add this with the fact that they literally heated it up, and also the possibility of using the shitty 5 min curing shit (idk about that tho), you have a recipe for disaster.

This is what my topsheet looks like after taking bindings off, for reference

As you can see there is a volcano of epoxy on the topsheet. Someone might have a pic, but chris’ skis do not have any, except for at the bottom of the hole. Him and his homies are super outta pocket for trying to diss them on live, they seemed like stoney blazed dipshits that had zero idea what they’re talking about. I seriously question their ability to mount skis
 
S/o to Misfit, I fw them hard, was gonna cop a pair this year but passed up on it because I got a crazy deal on old V’s, im hyped to try them out one day tho, they look really fun. If you werent in the live, I feel sorry for you. That was the funniest shit i’ve seen in months. Reid said the N word like 7 times and ankilla tried to stop him but he wouldn’t

(Kidding)

i have ana blocked on ig so i missed it but i imagine they tore the ski up, felt entitled to a free pair like they felt entitled to an orange name and when they didn’t get it, they went on a rant on ig. was i close??

also the date range of when you were an orange name had me geekin lmao

His binding came clean out of the ski multiple times apparently and after switching bindings on a new pair it ripped again (5 total times I guess)
 
Very entertaining indeed. To throw some points out there without making this a penis measuring contest against ankilla; our durability is on par with most brands, we use a poplar and beech core with the standard 10-11mm wood thickness in the center and it tapers out towards the ends, we try to have the beech under where the binding screws go so that it’s a harder wood you are drilling into. We use a heavier fiberglass underfoot to thicken and stiffen the middle third of the ski platform. We come out of a factory that produces other huge name skis (won’t say specifics, they might not like us to) using the exact same materials and labor and pay the same price (probably even pay more per ski due to our scale). There is no corner cutting to save cost, it’s all the same materials and processes they would use for any other company they produce for. We price our skis lower to be more accessible to those who want a good ski to ride, but could charge $600-800 like most other ski companies coming out of our factory. We also are continually adjusting the construction wanting to make a better and better ski each season, and for only our second season with a product on the market I believe we are doing just fine and on the right path from what started as a ski pressed in our garage to now about 200 total skiers on our skis between this season and last. Ankilla is still the only person to rip out like that, and be it 5 times is mind boggling indeed, so I am unsure how to fully address that issue. Myself (Ian) and the rest of the team stand behind the quality of the product and will continue to tweak and modify each season as needed (for example this year was the first production run of the 96 park ski, it’s a little stiffer than we wanted so tweaks will be made to soften up next seasons version). I’m not going to point fingers and blame the mount or the ski or the skier, definitely a independent case for now unless people start ripping out left and right (would bet money that won’t happen). Really enjoying the small ski community beef though, stokes the flame of a dying industry. Cheers fuckers ;)
 
don't see how this has anything to do with the bindings. he got them mounted at several different places.

what city are they made in? i’ll speculate the factor lol. how many pairs of skis did ana have? 5 different skis that this happened to or were some remounts? not a fan of ana personally, i think kit chat is iight sometimes good sometimes cringy as fuck, and i will say he is a good skier and im sure is putting them to work and probably has some validity to a potential issue that could perspire as the early models get more usage

if its the same construction as other skis, then maybe the shape is a factor? particularly the unsubtleness of the edge curve directly under foot.

when i saw the ski that was my initial curiosity was around the performance of the edges due to the shape. but ive never skied it. would love to see a roofbox review of it though
 
Ankilla is on such a power trip rn and it’s so funny, using the metaphor that your bigger than misfit like Tom wallisch is bigger than Line is WILD
 
You still don’t have the balls to tell this fucking loser to eat shit?

The company that supported him despite his bullshit?

Ankilla is a walking liability. He truly is a “no press is bad press” type. Anything for clicks. Support misfit.

They never supported him. He’s just a paying customer so they avoid trashing him

For the past year I was under they assumption they did in some sorta way. Probably would've been a positive business decision to publicly distance themselves from Xan from the get go. I lost all intrest in misfits because they seemed like they fuck with him.

We come out of a factory that produces other huge name skis

I know what factory you are talking about. Dont know why everyone has to be so hush hush about who makes the skis, it doesnt take much work to find the factories that will work with start ups.

Thank you for posting some clarification about the mounting job. I knew something seemed off when they were showing it on live, and I really wasn’t buying the excuse of not using glue in the mount holes.

I really wanted to say something about it other than the glue job, but I’ve never mounted a ski in my life. I just work on ski boots for a living lol.

this is how my skis looked after I took them out, to be fare though I remounted with a different year of the same binding and used the same holes with no glue or anything and its been fine for a day at the hill. I was just practicing mounting them, but I don't know what the screws are hooking on

supporting good skier = not core?? i, like most people, only heard of misfit because of xanny, so it's he's been objectively great for their brand.

You somehow manage to consistently have the worst takes i’ve ever read and I don’t even think you’re trolling. I pray that you are just a young kid who doesn’t really understand shit yet because if ur a grown ass man I feel bad for your total lack of awareness.

It doesnt matter how good he is, he can be the best skier in the world, people don’t fw him because he does outlandish shit. Personally, I actually like him, but I don’t agree with everything he says. Plus, Idk how u such a ?? and somehow don’t even know his name isnt Xankilla its X_ankilla, theres a difference lol.

"xankilla has been good for spreading misfit's name" is one of the "worst takes you've ever read" why are you being a jerk and randomly attacking me for having a different opinion? chillout.

No he explained it on some podcast. It was like he’s rider x and their group is ankilla or idk.

14577467:GrandThings said:
Holy fuck has his name been a play on "Xan Killa" the whole time?

I feel dumb, but this explains a lot.

I have been staying away from insta but just watched the two stories left. Damn. I couldn’t even finish the second one. I was cringing so hard. And I hate to use the word cringe but that’s all I can think to describe it.
