Aaron are you talking about me? First off, I have the 07-08 Reno Jibs. Apparently snapped/cracked noses and tails are somewhat common with that specific year/model, based on a few different things I've seen on NS. But I have never heard of this reoccurring problem with any other models, including more recent year jibs. A friend of mine does have the current year rockers, and loves them to death. I believe they will be my next pair.
