Default kuzmin "drum"

I've seen on Kuzmin web site that he proposes a rotor "drum" tool,
http://www.kuzmin.se/pgs/drum_en.html but didn't find any information
on that ?

(BTW, have we lost the archives of that newsgroup through google. ?)

Supposedly Google Advanced Search still works, though I haven't tried
it.

It's news to me, too: I haven't yet even seen a mention of it in the
liveliest and the best place for discussion (from the end user's point
of view and especially that of Johnny Startgroup-Two-Or-More) about
preparing skis the Kuzmin way, http://www.skidforum.se - but I'll be
keeping an eye (or maybe I'll ask about it).

FWIW the general idea would appear to be remarkably close to the one
that the fearless Finnish inventor (and rather inept marketer) of the
"Ski Grip" method (not to be confused with the various grip tape
methods) had: http://www.skigrip.fi/index_eng.asp?pid=84 (I haven't
yet tried it myself, but there have been some favourable user
reviewss, one from a national championship 50 km participator, but
maybe there's a bit of local (Eastern Finnish) local patriotism
involved in those comments...)

I haven't searched for anything in ages, but "search this group" used
to do the trick (for relatively new posts), but alas, it doesn't seem
to work now.

Consistent with Kuzmin's quackery of a "science", his web site does
not work properly in Firefox.

I'm tempted to response: "Consistent with critics of Kuzmin, you do
not even bother tell us *how* his web site fails to work properly."

FWIW it at least seems to work properly on the version of Firefox
that was installed in my Linux-distribution. (Which would be kind of
consistent with the experience of many of the skiers who've been
suckered into buying a Kuzmin tool.)

PS your newsreader OTOH somehow managed to corrupt - if that is the
word - the text of the post you replied to so that the link to
Kuzmin's site no longer works (without a little help, that is).


PPS Funny how the opening of a ski tunnel - or a ski hall, to be
precise - a ten minutes' bicycle ride away has made me a more mellow
man!
