Testimonial: Construction and Build Quality of Praxis Powder Boards
Read what a customer has to say:
I got the Praxis Powder Boards during the first season of their existence, in the late season 06/07. The model is still unchanged. Since the purchase, I’ve had over 110 days on these skis (estimated).
Already while unwrapping them the build quality of these skis impressed me, sidewalls and the layup of the ski seemed solid.. but at this point I am totally convinced. Although I’m a light guy I’m still not exactly light on my gear. After over 90 days the normal wear and tear is somewhat noticeable and the topsheet is scratched, but I have experienced no topsheet chipping or similar problems whatsoever. I’m usually not the one to believe the stories about this and that ski’s bases being super durable, but when it comes to Praxis Powder Boards I’m the one to make such comment myself. Sure, my Praxis have some scratches in the base, but no core shots! Now for someone who takes good care of his/her skis that might not be amazing at all, but I’ve always thought that a good powder run is worth a few stone hits, and have skied these babies in shallower conditions also. The p-tex on these skis seems to be holding up amazingly well. The edges are thick also. These skis are not afraid of use.
