How many flexed out nose stalls does it take to get to the center of a Vishnu Wet? (No seriously tho, can I do this trick whenever I want? or am I gonna snap 'em)

I get that from the perspective of "waa ski broke very bad, warranty damage that is totally my fault" but skis break to no fault of their own. Smashed my tip on a rock, fixed it with epoxy and a t nut. Never considered trying to warranty cause it was obviously my fault so I posted a thread asking for repair advice. Thread delivered, ski good as new, will purchase again.
 
One uber strong mount job + one shitty Marker baseplate + one heavy cork 5 knuckle landing = finally got a crack last Dec. Countless nose butters, rails, and nights left in the truck later, I have finally revealed the core of my Kartels. I plan to epoxy and clamp this, repair the fiberglass, then keep riding them.

Nah, I'll choose a good epoxy for bamboo and screw retention and have some experience repairing fiberglass. It might look super jank but I only use them for street and pvc seshes at this point. It's a perfect concrete ski tbh
