Hi, some photos always help :) The finished ski: on one the protection film is already removed, colors are nice and bright. On the other one you can see the topsheet shift in the middle... looks a bit strange. http://www.spame.de/skibau/matterhorn09.JPG Here you can see how thin the rest of the side...

Hi satch, no problem, I will answer gladly (lets be honest, if you post something in the journal section and no one is interested - that sucks!) I skipped the semi-cap design for one simple reason (and I will soon know if the cap really is the reason for it): When getting colder the cap skis start t...

First impression is really really good :) 2 little issues I saw on first glance which don't really bother me: 1) One of my base-in-place-keepers moved a little little bit under the edge and lifted it by maybe 0,2mm -> will be gone after the base grind, if not its the outer side of the ski :) 2)I use...

In the press today - as Swiss as it gets :)
Hi, some fotos of the skis I put into the press today - hope they come out fine, if they do this will be my future way of building. Highlights: - self-routed ski ends made from ABS - hollow tip - thin Sidewalls, only 2.5mm thick - each stringer of the wood core was routed to match the sidecut: Every...

Nice looking skis! Built GS skis as well and waiting to test them! IMO glass fibre is a bit too soft for a GS ski where egde grip is the main goal. Or you'd have to use a lot of glass, e.g. 1050g/m² triax. In mine, I used 450g/m² carbon and in addition 120g/m² uni flax to dampen the ski. Will tel...

Hi, nice to see you work, you obviously like to do things precice :) How symmetric are the skis? In a freeride like yours it won't matter much but I can think of 3 issues that can cause your skis to end up unsymmetric: 1) The template: You glued a print on the wood, right? if that print isn't 100,00...
