It’s really not that reasonable. World class skiers use factory made skis costing half as much. The “mass produced” stuff is also going to have better R&D and materials in it.
I've spent several thousand dollars in skis alone in the last 4 years. I will not spend another penny on skis until I have enough for a custom set from this company
In a lot of ski build videos they are using vacume bags and/or heat while pressing. What are advantages/disadvantages from this. Was surprised to not see it used here.
He says that there is not really a company making machines to produce skis. That is not true - there is one not far from me in Carinthia (Austria) and I know of multiple companies making various machines specifically for the production of skis, snowboards etc. here in Europe. These machines are expensive tho. Also, 2k does not seem reasonable to me as a really nice pair of Atomic/Fischer/Rosisgnol skis is overkill for most people at 1/4 of the price, even for professional riders. I guess the skis tehy are producing are not about that, which is fine to me, I like the way they are customizable.
What do you mean by overkill? The prices of those companies are pretty average. Besides that, price doesn't determine the characteristics of a ski. Expensive skis can work really well for some people, but not so great for others. Every ski has advantages and disadvantages and none are straight up better than another.
I live in gunnison, work on Crested Butte Mountain Resort, at a rental/demo shop. Really wish we had these to demo. Awesome to fine out how these are created. Go fast, take chances! CB sends its love ❄❄❄
Folsom customs are made talking with real experts instead of an wagner’s so called algorithm computer software and on top of that they are half the price and you dont pay more for better materials.
@@guyleckenby7567 it may look like back seat but in powder you arent actually skiing the same gradient as the slope. even when centered on skis your tails will sink slightly and you have less of a slope angle than the mountain. What the issue is here, is that his inside knee is coming in slightly and he needs to roll his inside knee more into the turn direction. This will stop his weight being too much on the outside for soft snow conditions thus preventing the outside ski from sinking away and losing the 'a-frame' creating a more 'stacked' leg alignment.
"cnc can't completely cut through the core"...bunk....people should take the time to explain why instead of just saying something which is a total nonsense.
No one says yuppie any more and if you do its just because of being jealous about something. This guy should just buy a 5 year old pair of Blizzards or something like that.
I don't get you skiers. You live in a beautiful and pristine environment, you come across as reasonable people, then you go and mess it up by burning tonnes and tonnes of Kerosene for a few turns. Why ?
