I'd rather not suffer a catastrophic ski failure leading to a launch off a 100 foot cliff and likely death.

Thanks though.

Clearly said that they wont be the best skis. It is just an easy way to make your own skis without having to spend a ton of money to make a legit pair. A ski like that would be good for early and late season a rock ski.
