multiple edeges in the base
i'm looking into making a pair of twins for all mtn. / park skiing and i was wondering if any of you super duper smart people could fill me in on how burton,atomic,elan and dynastar can put edges inside the base of the ski.
What do you mean by inside the base of the ski? Do you mean that the ski has an edge on either side, then one in the center of the base? As far as attaching the edges to the base of the ski, check out the rest of this site. I am not really sure what you would get out of having edges in the center of the base.
its probably just a slot cut in the base with another edge tacked on. but personally i think that extra edge business is crap, its not gong to stop the main edges from cracking and falling out,
also i beleive what dynastar did was put a metal plate above the edge between the core and the edge(not an extra edge sticking out of the base), hope it works cause i love tm's but the edges are crap on rails.
