Hi NS,

now, i have some 171 Head JO and i really love them but they start to break at one tip so i want suggestions for new skis if they start to fall apart. im around 5'9, 140 pounds. i need good skis that are bombproof with durable edges because i do more rails than jumps. i ski 10% all mountain and 90% park. in the park, i do more rails than jumps. there is not a lot of snow where i ski.

any suggestions? thanks in advance

Depends on what you mean by break, if you mean delam then you could either make sure that the core is dried out and use epoxy to glue it back together or you could rivet it back together.

If not then you should also consider your budget as some skis can be fairly expensive. You should look at cost vs performance. If they are only going to last a year on rails then why not get a cheap ski that you could replace every year? Or you might be able to find a more expensive ski that can last a couple seasons. Buy yeah pretty much anything armada and from what I am hearing the ON3P filthy rich skis seem to have some pretty badass edges on them.
