My tip popped open on day 5, landed switch off a small table and boom. Great skis though, still ski them all the time.

The 08 had a problem with delaming on the tips and tails. I had it happen to 3 pairs, but they were cool with warranty so now worries there. This years were so sick. Flexible in the nose, and a little stiffer in the tail allowing for good pop. Super fun for butters. This years are also made a lot nicer and have had no problem whatsoever with mine. They also shred pow really good. Next years are gonna be at a 100 underfoot, but they are coming out with a new park ski, i think its called the Nine Life, thats an 87 i think, but it looks super sick. If you get a pair get this years or next, and you should love them.

pretty sure they solved the delam problems for 09.. and the 09s are soft.. i have the 08s and love them.. i have had no durability problems with surface (LL2's and watchlifes). Watchlifes are super fun definatly get them.. they are good everywhere too..

The new watchlifes are supposed to be stiffer I think
That might not be true though. They are a completely different ski though
