    Durable Ski Reccomendations

    Are there any trully durable skis out there? Am looking for a day to day ski (not powder ski) that'll handle 200+ days in a year!

    Would be interesting to hear people's experiences with durablility. Fat skis too even though not looking for one.

    The old silver and yellow Stockli Asteroids have been unbelievable, though I've gathered that some of the newer ones weren't quite so indestructible.

    igneous has earned the rep (at least in my opinion) as has the volkl explosiv, kneissl tanker and stockli stormriders

    some newer companies are making a play (capital, dp, bro models) and are really really well made and ski great too.

    I've got a pair of 200 Snorangers in great condition, w/ 14 DIN M91s. 100 plus shipping. 2 layers metal, wood core, bomber ski.

    Oops...Scotland??? Shipping is likely prohibitive
