I've got some 179 blends that are pretty beat. One coreshot that was reapired, other than that the bases are in decent condition. The edges are perfect on one ski, but on the other it has a crack and is starting to delam underfoot, but it skis fine and isn't getting worse (yet). The skis ski great though, plenty of pop still left in them, super stable skis.
I cang get pics if you're interested
