my suspects are losing a ton of edge after close to two seasons, but i love the ski and i really dont think its anything against it. I'm a pretty big dude and i smash my skis on metal all day so i think thats bound to happen. Great on jumps to nice and stiff/springy for bigger jumps and holds a good edge (when it used to have edges). I would recommend suspects but i know literally nohting about punx.

The same could be said about the Punx.

With that said I recommend the Punx.  Heard tons of good things about them.  Probably gonna pick up a pair myself.

If you can, go for K2. Best skis ever made.

I shall be picking up a pair.

My friend have the next year punx and the edges are still shitty, he lost about a foot of edges in about a month... I really dont recommand buying punx or suspect because both of them are known for their low quality edges. I'd go with something else like k2,armada,line.

Yeah but they get free replacements as they break each pair.
