Breaking in skis

[Aidin954]

Anyone have some tricks for breaking in tips and tails on new skis besides "butterz4deyz"?

I wasnt aware you had to break in skis before riding. Seems like buying skis to suit your type of riding would work better.

Well no shit. I meant anything i can do besides just skiing on em.

Two blocks on tip and tail and bounce

tighten your boots up and do push ups and sit ups with your skis on. no joke.

That is retarded.

My volkl steps felt like 2x4s out of the box and after 2 days of riding they have broken in and gotten way more fun to ride. Just bomb some groomers and carve them aggressively in the park, get them flexing and they will break in.

Ironically i got one pair that was buttery as hell and the other pair is a freakin board. Practically the same skis too just a little bit longer.

I massage mine with goat semen every day before I ski, helps break in the skis and acts as a great wax

I know what you mean, the same thing happened to me. I just keep Ollie on them on while waiting in the lift line then I started doing push-ups with them and the. Summer sults.

Bounce in between moguls or ski across some moguls and zig zag all the way down the hill like a lil gaper.

Do this on the snow but also flex in your home on carpet. Also just keep on flexing them.

Good Luck.
