so my bangs started to delam, and i dont think i can warranty them, so i figured maybe id stop the problem before got any worse by putting like a rivet in them, how do i do it? i dont wanna fuck up my new favorite park ski. help me pwease +k for intelligent answers, -k for ignance
 
Try contacting Line, they are pretty legit about their warranties, especially with Delams.
As far as riveting goes, it is pretty tricky, you're better off having a shop tech do it...it requires drilling into the tips of the skis, and if you don't do it right they'll weaken the ski. Plus, you have to have a riveting machine to do it properly/more securely - it can be done without one, but it's not as secure cause you have to use a different type of rivet.
 
bad news is, yes, that will get worse...good news, I 94% sure those are covered by warranty.
IF they do not warranty them, take them to the closest shop and see what they recommend (the shop you bought them at would be best, but I know sometimes that's not possible).
 
If Line won't warranty them, a shop should be able to fix it for you with either some epoxy or popping some rivets in. You'll want to find out soon before you get a lot of moisture in there...
 
Line will NOT be able to warranty that right now... They are completly out of the 177 afterbang. The only way you will be able to warranty them is if your shop still has some 177 Afterbangs. If you bring them in right now Line will credit your shop the Wholesale price of the Afterbang which is like $226 dollars or something like that. I had to go through this earlier this year. I ended up paying 80 dollars and picked up a pair of Chronics
 
Epoxy and rivets aint to complicated. A decent rivet gun isn't that $$$.

if you don't want to rivet just epoxy to keep moisture out
