CHRONIC ART
As a well-known and respected artist, Dan Mumford’s dark style is super detailed and often is described as creepy and beautiful. Having already done the art for the legendary “Crow” Chronic a couple years back, Dan’s second Chronic design maintains the creepy factor and takes it to another level, a much darker one.

The work horse. This is my day to day ski and I couldn't be more happy. Its flex is strong enough to hold up on any jump yet playful enough to ollie around or get through tight transitions. What really brings this ski together though is its ability outside the park. The chronic really makes those runs down to the park or back to the lift that much more fun.
Pros
- Craving ability
- Durable
- Poppy
- Skis outside the Park
- Stable
- Strength
Cons
- You cant grow it for free
Best Uses

The only thing i have to say about the Chronic is that I can ski on this one ski all winter and all summer without it breaking. (250-300 days MT HOOD) Park skis need to be durable and because of the design plus fatty base and edge they can take 3-4 times the abuse of most park skis.
Pros
- Durable
- Even Swingweight
- Freshest Graphics
- Rips the whole mountain
- Stable
Cons
Best Uses
- All mountain terrain
- Halfpipe
- Jumps
- Park Lines
Ever since I joined Line in 2006, This ski has always been a part of my quiver each year. I grew up ripping this ski on bumps and tree jibs before my resort had a park. I used this ski for grinding rails in my backyard, hitting jumps getting towed behind snowmobiles, trying to ski east coast powder, hitting urban rails, and eventually made it to better mountains where its true strengths could be tested.
This ski absolutely kills it in halfpipe and park, and is stable enough to rip around the mountain and clear 100 feet off headwalls cruising 50 MPH into without wobbling your knees in fear.
Pros
- Durable
- Great Carving
- Lightweight
- Stable on bigger Jumps
- Versitility
Cons
Best Uses
- groomers
- Park
- Spring Snow
- URBAN

Swapped to the Chronic 2010 / 2011 and its just awesome. Suddenly my riding got a lot better and I wasn't worried about washing out on jumps I wouldn't have attempted before. Great ski: even snow boarders stop to ask what they are because they look so sick :-D
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

i had the 2009-2010 chronics. i ride on the east coast so i'm on [*] all the time and they preformed really well in the park and on the groomers. loved them until they SNAPPED!!!! ooohhhhh no. i landed switch, tail heavy and flat on a average size jump and the broke through the core about 4 inches from the tail. i rode away from the jump and didn't even notice til i took them off. they lived for 35ish times on them and i'm finishing off the year on them with a steel plate stablizing the break. these skis are the [*] and i'm pretty sure it was a freak accident that they broke.
Pros
- Poppy
- Stable at speeds
- Steezy graphics
Cons
- Heavy
Best Uses
- Jumps
- Rails
I use this on the East coast, and I ski a good 25 days a year. Most of the time I'm hitting rails and 360ing small jumps on the terrain, or just riding groomers with friends.But when I take it up a notch in the park, these skis can easily handle 100+ foot jumps. Best skis I've ever owned, by far. Buyy them

CHRONIC TECHNOLOGY
SIDEWALL
ABS plastic walls over the edges absorbs impact & vibrations for a solid, smooth feel.
MACROBLOCK™ CORE
This 100% tip to tail wood core is made from the widest and highest quality Maple and/or Aspen laminates for long lasting camber and energy and the lightest, most durable wood core in the Universe.
SYMMETRIC FLEX
The same ski flex in-front and behind your boot conforms to terrain for equally performance riding forward & backwards.
TIGERSNAKE
Used on the best skis in the world! An electrical conduit is woven into the core with control knobs on top, so the ski can become aggressive like a tiger, while maintaining natural flex . . . like a snake!
FIVECUT™
5 different sizes of sidecut radius shapes are blended into one, for intuitive control & unlimited turn shapes.
