So I decided i wanted to build skis and I remembered seeing the website skibuilders.com a couple years ago. It had a chart listing the density and stiffness of lots of different wood. Nobody would happen to have this chart would they? If you have experience you could save the run around and let...

1. Lj 2017 2. Will 2016-2017 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. ....... 102. Henrik 2019 (lol nobody was even talking about it) LJ's 2017 is my favorite purely because it combined all parts really well. It had insane features, good filming, and a decent song; all these slow songs that have been in...

I have watched all the real ski edits 5 times now and it gets more clear Everytime that Jake and Phil are the only ones that put more thought in the music than just syncing it up at the start. To me a song pulls the edit together, you got to have the upswings and the downswing match up. Right...

Well yeah obviously. I am talking more specifically like super tuned up/custom skis, I remember someone tell me this a couple of years ago and could never find the answer. I remember t-wall making a point that his pro skis could be bought at store, was he implying that other's are all custom...

It could just have been the marketing but it seems like the 2000s were when shit was going down. People actually needed and were getting equipment to fit their skills for the first time. Whether it was skiing, mtb, or climbing it just seemed like people were pushing themselves the hardest. It...

Wait so comp skiers are sellouts by finding a real way to make money doing what they love but the same people who created comps that were anti establishment aren't sellouts even though they get are getting fat checks from brands like ruroc? SMH they won't even wear the helmets .

Does dry wax do shit? I can easily tell the difference between edges being blount or sharp but I can tell the difference between a waxed base and one that's not so the effects of dry wax seem even smaller. Anybody got some race times to prove the efficacy of dry wax?

I found a thread that was 11 years old that advocated for them if you were park skiing. Is it even a thing anymore? Why would anyone even do it in the first place?

It's not really a "dream" since unlike cars it's not unrealistic to afford your "dream" but anyways, If you could have any equipment you want what would you get? I got pescados, knee hardcore's, and apex boots.

This is my third pair that are fogging between the lenses. Whats going wrong? I keep them dry and in good condition. I don't understand why this is happening.

If anyone has interest i can send you pics. The skis are brand new and have a slightly used marker bindings that are specospe for the blizzard mounting system, but they are equivleequ to jesters. They have a din range of 4 to 12 and a boot sole range of 366 to 270. They do have some small...

A general consensus among my friends is the you look like a total Jerry with one but how is the quality? Obviously how safe it keeps is a bit subjective but what about other things like the warmth or the goggles fogging. I assume there is no way you are throwing a neck sleeve under it when it...

It seems like this trend of 110-115 waist width and 25+ m turn radius "freeride" ski is becoming more and more common. Armada, 4rnt, and elan have all gone to this. Most of them topping out their powder skis with these semi fat skis. There a still a lot of powder skis that I would say are...

I kept seeing clips frome "hoji" on ig, they called him a freeride legend. I just couldn't understand that seeing as Nick mcnutt has a way better trick collection and in my opinion better style yet his tgr vids have almost no views and it's rare that people I talk to know of him. This got me...

I don't know, I eyeballed it and it looks like it's possible. I get the skis are from an era where rails were in their infancy and the tip and tail have completely different rise but I have a hard time thinking it couldn't be done. I took them to my local shop, and these are not a bunch of...
