Re: XC Ski For Women
By the way, none of this has anything to do with xc for women so you ruined another thread. Nice work. Maybe you should start your own waxing thread if really interested eh?
Re: XC Ski For Women
Well nothing in my responses to you have included the words “asshole” or “retarded”. Yet you accuse me of making things personal.
My sense is that you feel frustrated because you’re trying to reconcile previously held views with what you now fear may be incorrect. That’s not on me. It’s not Swix’s fault either.

Re: XC Ski For Women
Actually, it does. The OP talked about his wife’s strong desire for a ski with glide. Glide is also a function of waxing, in case you missed it.

Actually, I never acused you of that. If you can paste a quote I will reconsider. Right now all we have is this:Manney wrote: ↑Fri Aug 25, 2023 6:38 pmWell nothing in my responses to you have included the words “asshole” or “retarded”. Yet you accuse me of making things personal.

"This is an attempt to turn this into a personal discussion, which it isn’t. Not biting."
Gaslighting from a schmuck in a corner, trying to MAKE IT PERSONAL.
Re: XC Ski For Women
This is what you said:
A more mature, less personal, response would have asked for a specific explanation for something posted.
In an earlier post, you tried to elicit a personal attack.
You’re asking me to either self nominate as a retard (personal insult), illiterate (personal insult), or an asshole (personal insult). This is an example of an impossible choice.

That didn’t work either.
You’re frustrated @mca80. Take a deep breath and review your position on glide wax. Don’t need to share that… nobody should care about “winning”. Only learning, which is a personal journey. That’s why we’re all here, right?

Re: XC Ski For Women
Yes. I said that in response to yoy saying I said something I did not. So you are either disingeneous or retarted. Your choice.Manney wrote: ↑Fri Aug 25, 2023 6:57 pmThis is what you said:

Re: XC Ski For Women
Whole page of nonsensical personal disputes. Give it a rest, manney. I say again,this time for real, until you can read what I wrote and provide a response that betrays comprehension you arent worth responding to. And the bait is done now. You make good points but also avoid any actual interaction despite your assertions otherwise.
Re: XC Ski For Women
If by interaction, you mean mud slinging… you’re 100% correct. None of this has been a personal dispute. From my perspective, it’s been about wax.
But now you face a dilemma, which is one explanation for your frustration (giving you the benefit of the doubt that you haven’t let this become personal).
1. Have you been doing things wrong all along? Doesn’t matter. With new knowledge, comes new challenges… and opportunities. This is why the implications of new knowledge are always complicated. Such is life.
2. Have you contaminated your bases with grip wax? Good question… but since you don’t believe me on the wax issue, anything offered by me on how to resolve things one way or another would be wasted effort. It would just be another rabbit hole. You don’t get to give me the choice between asshole, retard or illiterate and receive helpful advice in return. Your skis, your mess. Sort it.
3. What does this mean going forward? Only you know the answer to this question. It very much depends on which path you take… that which is based on manufacturer recommendations or random people. Because my posts are not my view… they’re Swix’s view. The company that knows more about this stuff than anyone on the forum. Anyone.

Re: XC Ski For Women
The ignore function only goes so far. You are still left with half of another ridiculous, forum wrecking thread. SMH
Re: XC Ski For Women
Then you’ve learned nothing.
Still a great opportunity for you to add a personal view which doesn’t contribute to the knowledge base tho…
