I have always designed it so that the ball-of-foot is over the center of the effective edge length. That sounds about right. Looking at my serious carving tools (all of which are boards or skwals, though, not skis), the insert pack centre seems to be set around the middle of the effective edge. How...

The youngs moduals for bamboo are higher than that of maple or ash or even pine? http://www.waset.org/journals/waset/v34/v34-57.pdf implies the MOE of laminated bamboo is around that of Ash, as far as I can gather at a first glance. Most stuff is for bamboo in its natural form, which is *waaaaay* s...

I kind of call bullshit honestly. I dunno. I've seen people in deep pow on those teeny tiny snowblade things that are barely longer than a boot. A 135 board should have more float than that, as long as you can maintain speed. [size=0]It looked a lot like walking, though. On a board, it's likely to ...

As far as what I've read, 3 phase has 3 120v lines coming in, but somehow is not a series and somehow works out to be something like 208V. No idea why it is used. 3-phase is used for power distribution because there's less transmission loss. When you have 3-phase to the premises, it's usually then ...

scary. Is it wet or hosed down or fed from the bottom? so weird. Looks like it's kept wet by some sort of integrated water feed. This explains it a bit : http://www.snowflex.co.uk/technology.asp I'd be interested to see if it's possible to carve on it without dded your edges or the material itself ...
