Fred Weather like this only means that rocks that have been 12' up in the air are now hiding 2" under the surface. What used to be "air" are now edge rippers. I found that when there was "tons" of snow is when I really did the permanent damage to my skis as opposed to just the fixable core shot. I look at skis like a new truck. NO fun if you don't put any miles on it. pigo |

NO fun if you don't put any miles on it. Sure, but with dedicated rock skis I don't even worry about avoiding the damned things...ski over anything. With my good skis, at least I make somewhat of an effort. The key is to know where the usual rock fields are, and avoid them. Funny thing though, haven't had a core shot ever since I started skiing on Volkls. -Astro --- maximum exposure f/2.8 http://www.xmission.com/~hound/astro/03-04/index.htm --- |
