 Poster: A snowHead
|
|
I have a pair of RX9's great skis with two years worth of skiing four trips. However the plastic top is coming away from the main ski, it has water collecting in it. Coincidentally a friend I was skiing with two weeks ago has a new pair of RX 8’s and the same thing has happened to his admittedly he had cut into the side following a fall but it looks as though this may be a problem with the hard top layer. Has anyone had similar problems and should I seek advice from Fischer?

murf, take them back to the shop you got them from, let them take a look. It's hard to say without seeing a pic of them.

murf, Did you read the above previous topic and the links in there to the same topic on Epic? It all seemed to sum it up as a known problem and the only options are take them back to where you brought them if possible might be worth printing off Epic posts to re-reinforce it is a known problem. If you can not do this a DIY repair with epoxy and clamps is the other option.

Thanks for your replies. I've sent a message, with photos, to Fischer via their website.
I'll post back here if I get a result.
