Yup, same problem here. I really liked the desing and how they skied but quality is absolute crap. How can they even market them as a durable ski.

this is the basis for ski recommendations in geart talk
 
I had problems with volkl kinks, I know their not considered park skis and I was using them for park but I thought they would be a little bit more durable.

Guilty. However I had kinda hoped my surface watchlifes would have lasted more than ~30 days on the mountain before the base totally ripped off, and I've heard of other people with similar problems with surface skis. Not sure about worst skis, but no doubt far from the best
 
Rossi makes an awesome ski performance wise but the edges and base are so thin that they get destroyed really quick. It's a shame they haven't addressed that.
 
besides durability, there really arent many bad skis at all nowadays. i remember salomon skis used to have foam cores which was lame. and the suspects were notorious for being a sick ski but not durable at all. not to throw salomon under the bus, those are just two examples that came to mind

im of the opinion that anything with an extruded base can suck it

and im not the biggest fan of most of line's skis. their top of the line stuff is good from what i know but some of their park skis feel like cheap toys
 
I have a set of Volkl's that are great to just screw around on and have a lot of fun with but they arn't exactly the most durable, especially the top sheet.
