    Scraping Wax

    Definatly some of the most retarded answers Ive ever heard If you don't scrape the wax off its just going to build up on the bases and collect dirt and shit from the snow. Especially with dirty spring snow DON'T EVER USE BASE CLEANER. It will dry the shit out of your bases. The only thing you...

    hahahah gotta fuel the fire some more If you really want the BEST footbeds, you gotta go up to Ketchum ID and see Brent or Ben at Ski Tek This is what what I have, in addition to orthotics for my shoes. They made a plaster mold of my foot then built a 5 layer cork laminate footbed to it...

    Where to find a bootfitter?

    Park's Sportsman is in Orem I think. They are the best south of SLC. Sports Dens in SLC is always a good bet, But John Faig (has office in Snowbird Rec Center off Wasatch) and Earl at Sportloft (off Highland Drive) are really pros all the way. Surefoot is good, but Im not a huge fan of their...

    Atomic Pimps

    The Pimps have alot less sidecut than any of those skis, so they kinda prefer to rally super G+ sized turns while the other examples you gave are more in the GS turn area. They are also the stiffest (torsionally and longitudinaly) out of those that you mentioned. ive only skied the Seths out of...

    Yeah, I don't feel so lucky to be in AK right now. There have been like, 2 decent days w/o rain in the last 3 weeks. And the snow is pretty cool, but theres not enough to do anything with it yet. I was up over Bird Pass into the north fork of ship creek valley and it was snowing down to about...

    Atomic Pimps

    I don't like them mounted center, too stiff for that. Ive got mine at +2 and thats the best position Ive found, although they also ski well at traditional.

    DH in SLC

    I ride XC mostly, but the Bobsled is a really fun ride if you can get a 40 something pound monster up the top w/o a lift. No major drops or anything, but some serious horizontal banked turns and jumps that are fun. Its on the shoreline trail just a bit north

    Atomic Thug?

    The Thugs are not that stiff They are softer than the new big daddies, which are softer themselves than in past years. People who really like an uber stiff ski like the old big daddies have told me that they are too soft for them. They are heavier than the Prophets for sure though. They are...
