Sarcasm is hard to type. But I love it, because it makes it seem that much more dry and tactless. How small of a box can you get those edges in in Chamonix? I'd almost be interested to try and get a few meters packed really tight. Thanks I'll try tight coiling them, but I think they don't want to c...

My first pair of skis had 1.7mm thick base and edge. Now I am having a hard time finding that thick of edge/base. Who knows what I am obviously not finding out? Who knows of suppliers that carry fat edges? If you still need edge I have loads of 1.8mm (step) 2.5 (total) edge. You will have to figure...

Very nice, very cool idea, Thanks Mike

Thanks for the vid. That didn't look like much fun :) Would have been easier on a huge pair of freeride skis, but probably still not much fun, but that wasn't the point of the day. Went back up to that part of the world today for some climbing, happy to see that last storm has filled everything in ...

A summer morning testing ski mountaineering touring skis - these are very lightweight and are supposed to be transport rather than fun. The idea in yesterday mornings test was to try them when conventional wisdom says walking on crampons is better and faster. The first part I have to walk due to the...

Just a belt sander clamped to a solid table, 36 grit in mine at the moment, will have to look into an oscillating sander in the future, the belt sander goes through belts quick.

Yesterday, yes May 20th!

Flax fibers Bcomp.ch a little stiffer and more damp than glass

What pressure are you running? I see many people running much higher pressure than they need. If your ski components are the right shape then you need enough pressure to firmly hold them together while the epoxy hardens? Not as some of major manufactures are doing with hard molds , lots of heat, lot...

A little recognition for what we've been up too



We also won Ski category off piste - putting us in the listing between Rossignol and Volkl!!

that was a pretty good freeski tv episode. His aim is to make skiing stuff off the aguile du midi so mundane that there is no fear anymore. Good luck with that! Today http://sphotos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-prn1/555248_10151418789532174_428608141_n.jpg A few turns at lunch with Bjarne, Andreas and...

My sidewall width is 10mm when building the core, but 7mm once the ski is cut out. Gives me some wiggle room (room for error) and gives me a plenty wide enough sidewall. Mine are oak not UHMW though. Rabbet depth I set each time I router a bunch of cores as I don't have a router dedicated to this ta...

Yes, me at 0.02 to 0.06 , but also 0.37 to 0.43

Oh and here
