Removing my edges?

[JannyDenson]

I am thinking about taking off my edges on my el reys so I don't catch an edge anymore. Is that a good idea?

no your cores will rot and then your skis will snap

round them off with a file or disk sander or something

Part of me wants to say DO IT

Okay fuck it DO IT!

But seriously even if this is a troll, this is about the worst thing anyone can do. Round your underfoot if needed but don't remove them. You won't be able to turn, and your skis with get destroyed.

Yea do it so your edges can't rust anymore /s

OP you should try hitting the park on XC skis. Somewhere on NS there is a video of a guy doing it but I'm not going to search right now. Guy in the video makes it look fun.

Who doesn't take off their edges these days?

It might be. cross country skis would have no surface area and with no edges would make pedaling no problem. Heard they are pretty flexible to.

edges are actually just for looks, all core park skiers remove their edges.

 

[ErinCarpenter]

No, edges make it so you can actually ski. Once you've filed em down @ a good angle they'll be solid for rails

Op is trolling the trolls before they can troll him.

removing you edges will make you better on rails than Jesper Tjader. I took mineoff and now I can quad cork to a triple kink rail

 

[LamSobinsky]

when i had edges i could only 180 but now after taking of my edges i can double cork 11 on to quint off

 

[SeaUrchin123]

Try taking off the bases too, that the first thing I do every year once my new skis come in.

Switch to snowboarding instead, then you only have 2 edges to worry about instead of 4
