Ok, time to build some skis for my nephew. 100% ash core. This time I stapled the tipspacers. Will be interesting to see how that works out. I have a good feeling :D Also got my hands on some real tipspacer material this time. Tired of sanding, glueing, flaming etc.. Saves me some time. http://i1177...

Go ride that thing, it will be better than you think despite the issues.
And remember your next one will be better.

what fiberglass or carbon fiber did you use on your kid's skis? I have a 2.5 year old who I might build skis for next season, but it sounds somewhat difficult to make them flex correctly and keep them thick enough to mount the bindings. Any input would be great!
