Woooah, thanks! AWESOME review! Excellent job! Almost makes me want to buy a 4th pair of Ingstads... 8-) I personally give it a different rating though... I rated them earlier in the Asnes thread as being 30/100 Cross-Country and 70/100 Downhill... After another season I would update my final rating...

A99s!!! Woah, I definitely need a pair... In a Europa world, it's exactly my kind of ski..! It's probably harder to find than Storetind Natos though... I can't even find a picture of these gems... There is no doubt that Norpine started on double camber XC skis, that was the idea. And that was the on...

Developing ANY kind of binding without a adjustable mounting plate is totally retarded. Hey, it's almost 2019... Come on manufacturers, you can do A LOT better than thi...

That is a lot of NR for such a tiny alpine camber...

I personally use the Ingstad for walks in the woods... Sometimes with some climbing and turning. When no speed or efficiency is involved, when there is nice powder but not enough for downhill action with other fatter skis. Or for rolling hills fun when a very few turns are involved. I really use the...

Yep, pretty cool isn't it? It really changes the way I see skins, fishscales and climbing... I thought they all had the same claw... I felt so sad when I first tried to install the 74mm I had ordered for the Tindan, just to realize the insert was too wide... That is why I thought it would be a good ...

Which one do you prefer- or rather- under what conditions would you choose the Ingstad over the Nansen? You know that I like both... 8-) http://www.telemarktalk.com/viewtopic.php?f=19&t=2072#p24037 The fact that you find the Nansen stiffer actually concerns me...There have been a number of repo...
