then that one proaly is a manufactures error, elan puts those things out, and it happens, but the ski itself should be fine, but you still might want to see if the shop will give you a new pair, if not you can use them and if something happens to go wrong with them, i know that armada will replace them for you.

I could have told you that long ago! My local shop was putting up a demo that had all of this years skis. I noticed that when I was flexing them....then I cut my finger on the edge while putting it back...I think it's to help with carving, kinda like a built-in lifter plate.

The truth is...I kick ass. Simple as that.

There's a pair of Pistols where I work that has the same thing just not so obvious. I'd say it's nothing more than a cosmetic defect but most places will give you a discount on such a defect. I got my skis last year for 10% off because they had a little dent in the topsheet.
