Poles : Rossignol World Cup, who knows more?
Thanks!
At well under ?70 shipped, I could no longer hold it, and ordered the poles
up, in 172.5cm. My instructor said the 170's fit me well, but I kept missing
the feel of the 175's I left at home...

Replacement Tires/Tubes for V2 Aero 125s

I envy you.
But why nerve, do golfers have a shot gun where the 13th club should go?
And, do you consider this late spring, or early fall snow?
It's 30șC in Sweden these days.

Wheel drop/ski direction problem - UPDATE
Sounds like your rubber band is too heavy duty?
You may want to try a household (thinner postal type) band, and mount it
loosely. This way it will only engage at greater heel lifts. A second...

Thanks Ed!
Ouch, 12mph, that's a workout for sure then!
Then, like with rollerskiing, I can see how cruising over 20mph would kinda
make it pointless.

Hi John,
On my skateboard I lacked the coordination to switch legs, and indeed the
"resting" leg would be the one hurting. On smooth asphalt I was fast though.
It would be interesting to strengthen...
