I try to get all "lacquered" up when I am prepping my skis!!!!!!

 

[wa-loaf]

This shape of ski has proven to be most satisfactory.

"Now this is one method for determining the correct length of the ski, by placing the tip at the palm of a man's hand, with his arm extended over his head."

Awesome. I can't wait to watch the whole movie. Great find.

$50 is a good price, though I don't think they've been properly lacquered in a few years.

I don't think my toe irons are properly adjusted.

I think it was for military members in Mt divisions? probably why. I was actually kinda surprised when the recruit guy said , "It looks like fun!".

Anyone ever try skiing on old school skis like this? looks like it would be really difficult. Specially with the floppy boot.

Doing it = your orthopedic surgeon's new yacht.

Thanks for this. I always wondered how those old style bindings worked.

It is cool that they are inherently AT bindings. Also thought it was interesting for foot warmth the prescription is two pairs of wool socks.
