People do them in videos (snowboard videos), but they are not steel so it will be sticky and you might catch your edges.

 

[brizz]

yes, keep skis flat

 

[Canuker]

so dont lean back or anything, and should i wax it?

 

[CKpolicy]

dont wax, just dont pop too high, aluminum dents, we caught alot of edges last yr

 

[twsnow22]

they are pretty fun. some of them have a cap on the end that you should probably take off so you dont catch... and the ones we do you have to be in a nose or tail or yours skis will catch the support beams.

yeah, i set one up. they dont slide so nice so I would suggest setting it up steep down so you get the intertia to power through. something like this http://good-times.webshots.com/photo/2521895870102612969WeiMnn

instead of waxing, could you ice it a bit?

 

[RobotTom]

yes sir it is. do you go to UVM? im a freshman there.

 

[CHARLES.BRONSON]

waxing will help alot, that and dull your edges properly, not just from doing rails

I deffinetly think of it as more of a snowboard thing, because you need to be pressing the whole time, or doing a 50-50. I guess you could maybe do some transfer stuff like the snowboarders, but I donno how it'd look.

 

[ESfreeridepa]

ive done it, its possible, its definitly not the most fun thing ive ever done...

as I said before. set it up as a semi-steep down and youll be all set. end of discussion. check previously linked pics for evidence. slides like a dream.
