Thanks!! It says 265 near the heel so I guess that's the sole length.
It also says 307mm near the front part 🤷♂️
26.5 is size
307 BSL- 2

woke up today and it was barely snowing. looked at radar and everything was north of me. decided it wasn't going to be anything special and just stayed in. it's been snowing steadily since i made that decision and cams look like no one is there (at least earlier). missed opportunity womp womp.

I have no idea how to change the binding to fit me booties though 🤷🏻♂️
you gotta bring a tool called a file and shave off a bit of the toe/heel lip of your boot where it clips into the binding. it's pretty straightforward.
that's if the boot is too big. if it's too small you can always just screw the lips into the ski directly.

Somebody I rode the lift with said he was planning on demoing 15 different pairs of skis today.
Maybe the shop is wrong then. I dunno.
-
Today's demo day was for ski shop owners and shop buyers (the ones purchasing for the shops for next season).
I was offered to be put on the list, naturally it fell on the only day I couldn't be there.
At least that's what I was told.

I have some baked goods (not fine breads @toast21602) and forks.
If there's anything else needed, let me know.

I love pizz and I love old forge pizz but I'm no expert. What I will say is that any pizz is good pizz and pizz iz life. I want pizz but I have wings primed and ready. Yay football.
@Schifis the old forge master if I'm not mistaken.

@benm this is what base damage looks like 😬
Heated up the bases a bit with the wax iron and applied metal grip with a soldering tip, finished off with a little p-Tex.
we’ll see if it holds, hopefully tommorrow
oof not good was that from today?

That’s good news right?? Also realize that winter storm warning criteria is higher for the poconos than areas like southeast PA and central NJ
Just an advisory but I don't think it was there last night.
-
monroe carbon skook have winter weather advisories now. Not sure when that happened.
-
Weather guy here said trending NW (per usual). I do think it'll trend NW, but I also feel this is overblown and will yield less than expected.

Pissed. My mom is 1A and 1B, finally got an appt and they cancelled it.
Pissed because I have to keep looking since she isn't comp savvy

if it's right next to the edge, that does make the edge a little more prone to injury so you might wanna fill it in. take a photo and let's see what you're working with here?
here are some photos. hard to get an idea on the depth of it.
i'm prob overreacting. please don't bust my balls tooooo hard if this shit is laughable.

Do you see wood or fiberglass through the gouges in your bases? If not, rock and roll. Anything else is superficial and will make your skis marginally slower (@AtomicSkier response in 3... 2... 1...), but it's not gonna ruin your skiing unless you've got plastic hanging off the bases.
nah, nothing like that, just kind of deep in whatever the bottom material is and it is next to the edge. thanks, that gives me a good idea of what to look for in the future.

the issue is that i don't know what's ok and what's not ok.
