tele till your leg's drop off...
hey jeff, i would first ask the scottybob guys if they have any recommendations. they seem to be nice guys so i'm sure they can help you out.
but if that doesn't work i think it would be possible to sand down the topsheet layer to roughen it out. then get a new topsheet and laminate it to the ski with some epoxy. the only problem i see is that if you don't have a press or some way of pushing down evenly on the ski you may get some ugly bubbles and maybe some nasty results.
i used to paint my own topsheets when they got all destroyed. it's how i got started on this whole skibuilding path.
