A well maintained ski should last forever. That means keeping it dry, waxed, not allowing the edges to rust, etc. However, just because a ski lasts forever doesn't mean you should continue to ski on it forever. Ski construction continues to advance, and skis from 20 years ago, while still usable, are techically inferior. Much like a car from the 1950s will still work and indeed has some charm, old skis will work fine. However, you will be missing out on the technological advances in the past including differently shaped skis, vibration dampening technology, materials tech making the skis lighter and stronger, etc.
