Gripping Turf too much ?

[B-Right-On]

Hey guys, today me and my friend went to a park with a steep hill and set up a turf inrun and put a rail at the bottom. We have the same skis but mine were new with a coat of wax on them and hes arent. He was getting more than enough speed, but i was coming to a dead stop at the bottom of the hill. Could it be that my edges are sharp and i have a coat of wax ? + K For helpful answers

it's not the edges. Did you guys soak the inrun with soap and water? that should give u enough speed. Plus, i don't think fresh wax and astroturf is a good combo, but rather slow u down.

Yeah we drenched it. I was thinking it was the wax also. Hopefully next time we can get some snow for a ice rink.

Wax your skis, but scrape the wax off. wax the rail. water the inline like a motherfucker and use soap. If that doesn't help try pole planting or something. Otherwise its the turf that sucks.

Yeah Ill probs scrape the wax off before next time. + K to all

in that case he could construction fencing over it for just the in run and just turf for jump
