In powder these things are the truth. I heard the hype and had to try them. They are really great for slashing. they float on the powder better than ep's and other powder skis i've tried you can't sink these. it isn't a gimmick. I think i'm going to work on my skis to try and incorporate something l...

I like the idea. I was thinking of a similar idea.

Let me know how they hold up so I can plan on going th same route or bite the bullet and buy some top sheets.

I whould think this method would save cost and weight.

thanks for posting.

I think they are making the tip even more dramatic this year over last year. I had heard they were going to actually do away with the rear rocker for this year, but looks like the rumors aren't true.

scroll down to see the progressive rocker on the surface ski

I think i'm going to go this route. Looks simple and easy and a lot safer than applying pressure.

thinking about using tie down straps that cinch up instead of screws.
To keep it even more simple.

i like this a lot.

thanks for sharing.

you gotta post some pictures.
congrats on the skis. keep it coming.

LOOKING ON K2'S site they have some interesting things going on with construction of snowboards.

worth checking out to see if you can use any of it with your ski layups.

happy riding

Love the heat blanket. I'm thinking about something similar. So on the mdf section of your mold is there any camber and if so how much? Most powder skis don't have camber, but I 've seen a few that do and hear its helpful on cattracks etc, getting back to the chair if you are skiing slack-country (o...

NICE JOB

Those are really great looking. Can you explain the process a bit more. did you use a steam box etc? what exactly did you use for the bases? they look great. this is really what I'm looking to do for a gift for my dad who is a big wood guy. But I wanted to have something not only that looked good bu...

check out what k2 is using as sidewall. not on all pairs but on the kung fujas. see below. check the site for a picture. At first I thought they were doing wood sidewalls like some of the builders, looks like a cool alternative. TRANSPARENT SIDEWALLS This sidewall material is an alternative to the s...

Does anyone know much about polycarbonate? Lightningboards.com uses them for their edges. I think this is what they make out glass eyes out of. this is the discription: POLYCARBONATE The most common type of polycarbonate plastic is one made from Bisphenol A, in which groups from Bisphenol A are link...

720MM ON THE SALOMON SKI.
CHECK IT OUT ON THE WEBSITE.

THEY HAVE A FLAT BACK WHICH I think is a bit better than the reverse camber.

go look at the video they have, pretty cool.

good luck

I'm looking at the rocker tips that you did. i'm trying to picture them laid up in the mold cassette, if you have a picture do share.
also interested in your heat source idea, i'm working on a similar idea.
some pictures would be great.

i really like the look of the ski good work i'm impressed.

how did your skis
work out?

I'm going to have to hunt down a ski report maybe.

Here's to deep powder and long runs. cheers
