Which of these is all-around the most durable ski? I don't care about top sheet chipping etc. But I do care about more significant problems such as snapping in half like my Walls from last year did.

A) Head Jon Olsson Pro

B) Rossignol Ghetto

C) Armada AR6

Feel free to put them in order or leave other comments/suggestions for durability and warranty experience.

Thanks!
 
I think JO pros could be the strongest, then AR6 (if you don't give a shit about topsheet chipping)
 
everyone i know with the ar6 says they hold up super well, haven't heard of anything about the other two though
 
thanks for the help but as of 10 minutes ago I know longer need to buy new skis. Volkl stepped up to the plate and im getting 09 walls for free after initially trying to screw me over. stoked!!
 
not at all. ive seen several pairs of jon's explode. armadas are notorious for loosing edge. im gonna have to say ghettos on this one. i have the 07 scratch fs and they are probably the most durable ski ive ever owned. next to none top sheet chips, a couple edge cracks but none has fallen out.
 
I was coming from older Heads - and then I realised that the JO's have a different core to the mojos so i fail. I still think AR6 over the ghetto though - i've heard about heaps of problems with sidewall issues etc with the ghettos?

 
My buddy had the ghettos, and he beat the shit outta them, and they held together through 3 seasons of thrashing. My friends AR6s are falling apart after only one season of much lighter use. Cant speak much for the JOs, but I know the old heads are fucking bomb proff!
 
i don't have them but a couple of my friends have ar6's and love them . I know they last a long time. so i say

C
 
Hmmm, I'll have to go with... READ THE STUPID THREAD! He said that he just got a warranty deal on new walls, so the thread is over. Thank you for bothering to read before posting :)
