Revision Messed Up

So, back in September I was looking around for a new pair of skis for this season. After hours of searching, someone recommended revision skis. They look sick so I got them for a sick deal during the pre-sale. There was only one slight issue, the skis ship date was "mid November" although that was kinda annoying I knew I wouldn't be skiing at all between now and that time. Fast foward almost 3 months and I still havent heard from them, so I sent them an email regarding the shipping. They said that they would contact me in the next week for an Update. They sent another email a few days later saying they ran into some issues during production. "Due to some quality inconsistencies, we made the decision to rebuild a good portion of our skis". At that time I was like "ok, well I would rather wait 2-3 more weeks for solid skis then get low-quality skis now". They also said they would send another email in about a week for a new ETA. I got the email this morning and they said the new shipping date would be THE FIRST WEEK OF JANUARY. Thats almost have way into the ski season. I'm disappointed because the skis looked so fun but theres no way im waiting that long.


But thats not all, they also gave me (and all other customers) a $100 coupon to there website. Sure I appreciate them going out of there way to do that because they definitely feel bad abut this whole situation, but $100 is not gonna keep me waiting around for another month and a half. So, what do you guys think. Are any of you guys in the same Boat as Me?
Could this issue possibly be the end of revision?

jbond3I ordered these same exact skis. Are they worth the waiting and frustration? Are they going to make me fly and backflip effortlessly? Can they shred the gnar?
Seriously, how are these bitches


They are seriously the most playful skis I've ever been on. butters and spins are pretty easy, they don't do very well going super fast in chop, but you can't really expect that from a soft jibby ski like this, and they can manage it if you just point them and stay loose. absolute riot in the park as well....these skis like to go bigger than i do lol

The referenced post has been removed.


No you will just see the usual suspect team members announcing new sponsors. It will be the usual suspects that always get picked up by shit 2 year ski companies on flow. Word to the wise. Investigate the "fresh new" brands before you put your trust in them. Very few do it right. If they start out by stacking a team, and taking pre-orders, then run.

how does that make sense, are you mentally retarded?

It should take up 5 minutes to get one pair ready to ship,

Fuck i hope you never run a business, it would be worse than revisions.

Yeah good luck if you try contacting them. Really the only thing you can do is try contacting your bank or Credit card company and filing a claim. If that dosen't work then you can file a claim with the FTC.

Got my skis today, 2/16. No surprise, nothing at all about a coupon code like they said. I'm worried if I send them back it will be just as much of a mess to get refunded

I ordered mine the second day and others who ordered after me are getting theirs? that's bullshit. I have a ski trip to go on in 4 days and I'm going to be stuck with what's left of my old k2's.

Sorry that took me a minute. After further inspection it was not petex but instead a dent in the base material that did not get a pattern from the stone grind. Nothing that will destroy the ski but here are pics

I went through my credit card company to try and get it back since revision sucks at replying to emails. The cc is still doing their thing but since I now have the skis I don't know what will happen. I probably will not try and send them back unless the bases are all messed up. I'll try and check that they are flat and post why I find.
