Check out Berkshire East. They have a nice mix of terrain, some steep pitches. Small local feel. They just did a bunch of work over the summer building an addition to the lodge with a new restaurant/bar with lumber from new trails they cut! Great ski area.

Very impressive work, keep it up!

Whats the status on your new work space? Close to completion?

Are all your skis and boards made with urethane sidewalls? Wondering if you switched to a something else either more economical or faster/easier to use.

Cheers!

I bought some neon pink from SkiLab and its really bright solid neon color, no transparency. Might be able to send a few feet if you need it.

Need to buy some more edge material before I press again. Went back and reworked my PID control box into a smaller, cleaner box.

Thats a busted cross country ski with the what looks to be cardboard core. I doubt Burton and these new Rossis have breathable membranes or purge valves, so how do they get away with hollow skis?

Getting back to the hollow core ski idea...

Rossignol's new ski the 'Squad 7' has lightened tips...

How do you think they manage that?

Not to add to the hate, but don't you also need rubber to use with the titanal? If I recall that is equally as hard to source as the titanal itself. Good luck...
