Why do my skis break so easily?

Ridiculous

Up until this year, I haven't had an issue wth skis breaking, but now, it's only halfway through the season and I've almost broken my third pair. I started with Rossi Slats that completely delammed after 8 days of skiing, then I broke Volkl Ledges in about 5 days, and now my Shreditor 102s are delamming underfoot, have a pulled out edge in the tail and the tail is delamming after around 25 times skiing. I'm only 5'10" 140lbs so I don't know why they're breaking so easily, any thoughts?
I detune my edges underfoot and usually keep my skis in my car or heated garage.

No Life

I've usually heard good things about all those skis for at least getting a season out of them, especially the shreditor and the slat. Have you tried to get a warranty for them? Try that if you can, cause it would suck to have to buy a fourth pair.

but if you do have to buy a fourth pair get on3p and your problem should go away

If you ever knock your skis together fiercely while riding the lift to knock snow off that explains the delamination. I used to do it all the time and my top sheets were ruined in a couple of weeks. I haven't done it in a couple of years and have had zero delam problems.
