I purchased a pair of Liberty Phil Larose Pro model and the edges cracked and the bases bubbled after 5 days in the park. Overall the ski had a good feel but they are not worth buying.

Yes the reviewer above had an experience like mine, but mine snapped in half in front of my toe piece ridding in whistler in the summer. Felt great though before the broke. 
one of the better all mountain powder skis i have purchased!

What are these guys talking about?

This ski is amazing! I'm an Extremely aggressive park rider. I got a pair of these early season, and have put about 30 days on them so far this year. I smash rails, 270 on/off, switchups, butters, logslides, urbans... I jib EVERYTHING.  
 
With the Bamboo core, twin sidecut, they are perfect for any park run you could test.  
 
I don't know what these other reviewers are talking about.  
A: It's not an all mountain powder ski.  
B: A base bubble is caused by a heated core, waxing/leaving them in a hot car.  
 
Yes, the skis are very soft, but with the Bamboo core, they have an extremely responsive rebound for the PEEERFECT butter.

I bought some Phil Larose (178) skis and they are amazing. I used them for 8 days in fresh powder and also in the park. I found there bamboo core gave a responsive flex but was too soft on piste although this is expected as it is a park ski. Top sheet chips, scratches quickly although base and edges are still mint! The overall performance of the ski was great and I have had no problems with them breaking or bubbling like the reviews above!

i love these skis. ive had them for two seasons and the edges are bubbled/cracked and the edges on the tails are twanging out. pretty weak sauce since i love riding on these. they feel so natural.
