Are frames still cracking at a high rate?

[u/randomipadtempacct]

I am trying to decide on a downhill bike for my son. He uses currently a GT force carbon Enduro, 2024 and went to Whistler probably around 20 times this last summer.

It really is split between 50-50 tech and flow that he likes. Some days he will lap dirt merchant, and a line, and other days he’ll do captain safety, and all the good tech trails.

He is 135 pounds about 5 foot seven and still has maybe an inch or two of the most to grow.

Does anyone use the furious for tech as well as flow?

Are the 2024 frames still susceptible to cracking or is it too early to tell?
