I loved moment skis when I had them but due to the company not helping me out when I had issues with the ski I will not buy from them again but I'm looking for a ski with a similar build if anyone has any ideas looking for a park ski

Not sure what moment could have done and I'd be interested to know... For skis with the same build quality and standard, I'd check out Vishnu, On3p, 4frnt, Sego, Skevik ECT. These are all trusted brands and there's more out there.

Edges were messed up after like 2 weeks of riding them and they wouldn't do anything for it I thought they had a good warranty program

Absolutely no company is going to cover edge damage considering there is a 98% chance you caused it

So basically, if I understand this right, Moment shut you down when you damaged your skis on rails and then tried to scam them on a warranty claim, and you are looking for a recommendation on which company to try this on next?

Sucks to suck, your loss really my guy. Sounds like you didn't play your cards right or aren't telling us something because Moment has a pretty good track record with customer service.

Our warranty program specifically states that damage that is impact related, including damage from rocks and other obstacles such as but not limited to: rails and boxes is not covered by the warranty.

I looked through the photos you sent us and the damage to your edges is definitely due to hitting rails and [if you only skied them for 2 weeks] some neglect in terms of proper care.

Edge damage will never be covered. If you hit rails for more than really like a few days or at all your warranty is invalid to cover the damages to the edges. I have no idea how your edges got fucked so quick, if it was neglect or damage, but I've skied my Vice for over 100 days all in the park before i retired them. Crossing fingers they release a reno jib replacement or something of the sorts

Well you could quit being a bitch and support them but if you would like to go pull your shit on some other company the only one that does rail damage warrantys is HG.

I've had homies who've had similar issues with their skis and they've always gotten helped out by the company, one of my best friends edges did the same thing all cracked up and weird looking he had factions and they literally sent him a pair of skis because of it. I wasn't even asking for that I was just asking for like a repair at least, its all good though maybe I was just being a bit salty and yes I didn't ride them for long at all and the day I got the most damage on them I wasn't in the park I was skiing at Jay. End of story you guys make hella dope skis and I was in a bad mood I guess

Bought revisions since I didn't have much of a budget for skis this year and they were Mad cheap not the most playful ski imo but they are holding up quite well

Same situation I had with my on3p's. I bought some filthy riches and with in two weeks the edges underfoot were destroyed. I didnt detune underfoot and rode them only on midwest rails. Someties shit happens and it sucks but it is what is it. Bought a new pair of kartels and actually detuned underfoot and they are bomb proof. When you have skis its important to switch them around every couple runs and take a file/gum stone to them underfoot after the first few sessions. Ive ridden moments in the park and they are pretty bombproof as well. grab a new pair and take care of em!
