that sucks doode.. i don't know seth, so i won't slam him personally.. but it seems like mix jumped headfirst into this business without taking the proper precautions.. i wanted to buy a pair of mix boards but i wasn't about to play the gambling preorder game.. seems like they've never been good with answering emails, getting shipments in on time, and now warrenty issues..
if you want to be our core company.. you gotta pull your socks up mix.. stop dickin us around, pull your shiet together for next season...
personally, tibor and canon have been good to me.. even though everyone on this forum seems to be hatin on canon.. i'm stickin with them..

It was about >past< quality. If they have changed, which I have heard they have, with a move to new offices and production in Canada, then more power to them and to their riders.

you can't say it was past problems with canon when they haven't fixed the problems yet. g was nice enough to let me borrow a pair of this years m7's, within 3 hours (and this is not a exageration) of riding these boards on a rail they had delamed started splitting apart under foot on the outsaide edge of my right foot, same place as everyother board. theres going to be warrenty issues with every company, i'm sure mix will work there shit out next year, hopefully canon will come out with some new boards too.

Hey, I was being nice. As I hadn't ridden a Canon since 2000, but it's nice to here from somone who has ridden current production.
Everyone is still trying to get to par with Line boards of 99-2002.
Mix looks to be using the same materials, so that bodes well; but On all Line boards I have come across there are US PATENT #s. Why would that be, unless they have created a product that is actually not allowed to be duplicated.
Again, not talking about the crappy boards that have the 'Line" name now.
It's almost like Line knew that they COULDN'T make a better product anytime soon and just moved to big sticks, and gave up on skiboards (Again Temporarily.)
Name me a better board if you disagree. A better board quality-wise and riding.....
I only want the best. I don't work for Line :D
I see everything trying to live up to them still. No one creating a better product. I will be the first to say if another company makes a better pair of boards.

To my knowledge the patent #'s were to protect line when they said they invented the skiboard..."which they did not"
