Re: Asnes Falketind 62 vs Falketind Xplore

Yes, the kick and glide is dramatically improved. That I can report. Acceptable for an XC ski on a consolidated base, and also very good in soft snow. It is also much more stabile in deep snow. Those are the only definitive statements I care to make currently. Thank you #fisheater If I understand c...

Re: Incomplete skiing. No continuity between shuffling on the flats, a line to ride uphill and groomed snow downhill

https://www.tognar.com/multi-edge-tuning-tools/ The multi-edge tool for $50 will take care of your edges. You’re probably better off getting a base grind every year or two. I’ve done the hand base scraping and hand structuring, it was 20 years ago, and most likely the tools are better. I think that ...

Re: Fischer BCX Europa 109 Tour

I’ve used Titebond III with plastic Voile risers and 3-pin Hardwire bindings on two sets of skis.
No science behind this, but no problems

Re: Newbie questions, Finnmark, camber, etc.

Finnmark is supposed to be a edgeless Gamme. Fast, aren’t they? I love my Gamme’s, however skiing them without edges? Well I think I prefer edges. As for waxing, I told you it was no big deal. However I’m much better at it now then I was 5 years ago. However my biggest F-up was this season, goes to ...

Re: A Little Love for Rex Universal

I find the Rex Universal ok for slow walks in the woods or snowshoeing around... The grip is quite nice, but the glide kinda sucks... We all have our experiences. While I think the glide is poor on more transformed snow, I find it to be quite excellent on powder snow. I wouldn’t be singing it’s pra...

Re: A Little Love for Rex Universal

I'm keen to try this one; has anyone tried to stick a skin over this wax? Or does it behave like a softer wax and pulls off the ski together with the skin? It felt harder than I expected it to. Had no issue with a half skin over it. Thanks Smitty that’s good to know. It is quite hard below 20F, but...
