Looks like good snow conditions by English standards. At least it isn't
raining.

Markee -

Let your juniors up there know that while they were tromping around on
thier skis in a fourth of July parade, kids from New England were up
training on the Dachstein Glacier in Austria. I ran into a group of
them when I was up there earlier this week, along with a team of
surly, utterly humorless Germans.

Hi June,
I hate to spoil it, but RonS was joking. Stone grinding uses precision
equipment to flatten and resurface the ski. See Zach's page
http://www.engineeredtuning.net/index.html for example. Mark's truckee
parade photo might be called "pavement grinding" - not the same thing ;-)

Bob
And, no, I don't know why anyone would grind perfectly usable skis into the
pavement. I can only hope that the photo was staged in some way and that "no
ptex was harmed in making this picture" :-0

Okay, Bob. Thanks. I'm not usually such a dunderhead, but when it comes =
to skiing I am really an amateur.=20

Sorry June ... yes I was attempting a joke. Guess I should have used the smiley
face.

I'd guess those skis are dedicated to pavement skiing now.

Ron, don't apologize. It's not YOUR fault I didn't get it. I hang out =
here to learn about equipment and anything else that piques my interest, =
but I'm not a racer -- never will be -- and don't know squat about =
grinding/waxing and all that sort of thing.=20
