I don't think there'd be any problem with the boards keeping their shape without bases and edges. It's really the fiberglass epoxy composite that holds the shape. The edges help only if pre-bent, but I never had any problem with the tip or tail flattening even when I didn't pre-bend the edges and th...

Been a while, so thought I'd catch up a bit.... http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc452/agiocochookb/skis%20ITB/IMG_4554-2_zpsb04b73be.jpg http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc452/agiocochookb/skis%20ITB/IMG_4493-2_zps810c9345.jpg Local artist Randy Rackcliff and psychedelic mermaid.

These are a graduation present for the daughter of a friend. She's a racer-girl (likely member of the '13/'14 US women's alpine team), so we decided to go with something completely different...... They're similar to the Black Diamond Amps. http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc452/agiocochookb/skis%...

Thanks MM. Other wives are starting to talk...might turn into a...ummmm...cash-cow. Yeah, the epoxy is an experiment. On previous wood sidewalls I've just used a couple coats of spar-urethane. I'd like something a little more finished looking, tho, and also easier to color....the epoxy is WS 105/205...

Thanks, but the only credit I can claim is the photo for the Mt Washington skis. My business-to-be (or not to be, that is the question...) partner has handled all the graphics.

Anniversary Skis
I was asked to make a pair of skis to be given to the husband by the wife as an anniversary present. Initially, it was going to be a 1940's pin-up girl design, but then the wife changed her mind and hired a photographer...... http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc452/agiocochookb/skis%20ITB/IMG_5399...
