Hate to point it out but the individuals in the photo are US Army Soldiers not Marines....

I hate to think how long these expensive skis will last in the hands of the troops. Are they PFC proof? Would be interesting to see where they send them for repair...

User level maintenance....
My 10-year old can do it..... these guys should.....
There are also, new waxless waxes being developed by DPS that are a 1 time application, so Joe doesn't have to wax, and there is no chance of screwing the bases up with a hot iron.
The edges, are "all" they would have to worry about (if using scales instead of skins...) skins work better, but require far more maintenance.
