I just bought the Armada el ray on here, and just took it to a local ski shop yesterday and got bindings mounted to them. Today as I got home from school, I looked at my skis and noticed that the wood on the side had slit, and is a decent size, maybe an inch. The local ski shop dud not cause do it because I would have noticed it when I picked them up, and I have no clue how else it happenend because I haven't skied on them yet. Would you guys take these skis back and send me the same ski with the same binding included, as a part as my warranty because I have only had these skis for about a week? Thanks. Also, the day I got these skis, after unwrapping them, I noticed a very small crack at the end on one of the tails on the ski. If that maybe has anything to do with how the ski was manufactured? Thank you.
