how do the bases of some skis glow like yellow or green or white? ive always wondered how they do that, is it like glow in the dark or somethin?

White reflects light very very well. When light is reflected off of a very neon color base, that color is also reflected very well. The snow is basically acting like a mirror... only not nearly as well.

I always thought it would be cool if armada made one of their new neon skis with that.

when i saw the title of the thread i thought you were talking about actually installing lights in the base of your skis

like the neon that you can buy for cars

 
^that would probably be the gayest thing ever. but it might actually look cool from far at night if you had glowing skis. im gonna try that.

^Base glow is when the snow reflects off the neon bases. It wouldn't work at night

my pistols have a pink glow coming from the tips and tails and green form the sidewalls all the way around them. it looks pretty sick.

 
Do people seriously not see the problem with installing lights in the bases of your skis? I can't tell if you're all joking or if the world has gone batshit insane.

 
get those rope light things (they're waterproof too) and find some way to battery operate them, then run them around the outside of the topsheet.

it might be one ball jay that used to make a neon glow wax that made the snow all green so like if u hittting a jump at night u can follow ur same line

^ My favorite part in Bambi is where that
 
If u started from scratch making the skis u could install fiber optic lighting to ur bases only problem is a battery source and mount point

I'm sick of following my dreams. I'm just gonna ask where they're going and hook up with 'em later"

 
im leaning twoards the rope lights taped on to my skis. and i would need like a car battery attached to them. the battery would be in my backpack or somethin.

they make battery powered ones and i guess a nine-volt battery or 2 double A's(can't remember) keep them going for a while. some people use them on christmas trees and they last most of the time they have them up.

 
thats an awsome idea
