probably volkls or K2s. and armadas and 4frnts are supposed to be tough, however i don't have any experience with them.






I feel bad for people who don't drink, cause when they wake up in the morning, thats the best the're going to feel all day

Stockli Stormrider series...by far. There is no comparison. Kneissl Tanker is a distant second. Followed closely by probably the Volkl G4...Vpro is probably in there. Mad Trix Mojo closely thereafter. 4-frnt close after that.

the '02 teneighties (Non Spaceframe) I still have mine, and they just won't die. The core is flexed to shit, but they refuse to snap in half.

I Love my madtrix... i mistreat them so much, landing on rocks, branches, rails, whatever... more than their share of p-tex repairs and STILL as good as the day I bought them. Such tanks.

Old straight skis except K2's. Old Volkl RennTigers were the biggest bitch to mount because of the 8 layers of metal in them. I have NEVER seen anyone break a pair of those things before. Same could be said about the old P9's and what not. The old K2s delamed like nobodys business. A guy I work with broke 8 pairs of Gyrators in a single season.

Youd think after the third pair or so he'd have learned his lesson.

Drake Boinay for sure. Most durable ski ever built. Carbon Fiber, Kevlar, and wide edges. Email me for a 5% discount on orders. Good luck!

i broke the edge of my candides, but thats because i blew it out on a rock. other than that they seem to be pretty good. dynastar skis are notorious for having shitty edges.

yeah armada's are definitely not too durable... ive had my pair and only skied them 3 times and done rails with em one of those days i skied with em and the base has marks in it really really deep, the edges are already really smashed, and the topsheets on them are fucked as hell... ski-wise they''re great... durability wise.. i guess ill wait and see if they'll last me the whole season.
