Same thing here. I thought it was cuz I sucked, but then i remembered that last season I could do rails willy nilly. And yes, i just said willy nilly

who cares about your edges....and obviously if you do rails your edges will be worn down..common sense thats like the MAIN thing having to do with warantees for the past 2 or 3 years and MAYBE if you just started skiing like blindly didn't know anything about this sport then ok thats understandable....but wow

When I said that my edges were getting eaten up I meant that I keep catching my edges on the rail, where as last seaon I could grease rails like nobodys business. So whats up with that?

-Burrs in the rails (i.e. Sticky rails)

-Sharp new edges on your skis

-Burrs in your edges on your skis causing catchiness on the rails

-Leaning to far forward catching downhill edges

-Not balancing well

if you keep cathing then just grind your edges down either on the rail by hand or file

can someone give me some tips on sliding concrete or other non-slippery jibs? i can grease super long and hard rails as long as they slide pretty easily, but i cannot for the life of me slide concrete...any help??
