  1. Dremel do make a cut off wheel for plastic the 476 that works OK.

    As for how to cut, search the web for the Salomon Shop Practices manual and check out page 62 as it shows how to soften their Course Pro boot.

    Search here on Bomber too, someone did a great write up of the BTS changes they did including "fixing" the shells rubbing....danged if I can remember who it was!

    Merry Christmas!

  2. Don't forget the board Jacques Rilliet put together while at Wild Duck the Knifer board too:

    Length: 161cm even thought it's marked 165cm

    Effective edge: 145cm

    Sidecut: 11 meter

    Nose: 26cm

    Waist: 21cm

    Tail: 25.5cm

    Length / running length / waist width / sidecut radius

    161 cm / 145 cm / 21 cm / 11.1 m

    While the SWORD:

    Length / running length / waist width / sidecut radius

    161 cm / 142 cm / 21 cm / 12.1 m

  3. Dr D is correct, here is the reference to the waiver in CA:

    17 CCR 6051 (2003)

    § 6051. Unconditional Admission with Permanent Medical Exemption or Personal Beliefs Exemption

    You can check your states rules at this site

    And remember, if doctors knew what they were doing, they wouldn't work in a medical practice :)

  4. Hi paappraiser,

    Having the full insole does not mean that you automatically have a metatarsal bar.

    The bar lifts metatarsal heads, spreading the bones and releaves the pressure on the nerves which run between the bones. Have a look at the symptoms for a morton's neuroma to see what I'm talking about.

    I had a numbing in my right foot and it was disgnosed as a morton's neuroma. Adding a bar to my insoles helped a great deal so I thought I would mention it.

  5. Wotcha Al G,

    CA has snow like Scotland....white lead... "Sierra cement" is a truth in advertising statement not a catch phrase. Still beats the crap out of Aviemore...

    If you do go to Denver instead of getting the Skier Express etc from the airport grab a free hotel shuttle and flash the cash to the taxi drivers downtown. They are usually cheaper than the SE and you get dropped right at the door without having to trawl around everyone elses hotel/condo.

    Breck is way cool, however the alt will KILL you...makes for a cheap night out however a couple of beers and you feel pissed.

    Martin Drayton....argggh 80 flashbacks!!! :biggthump

  6. I use, and highly recommend, the Dupont Surlyn tape / Skuff Saver from Tongar . I put it on my kids skis at the start of the season and it keeps the skis tops in great condition.

    I clean the skis with wax remover while warming the film in the oven ( lowest setting with door open ) then use a vacuum bagger to apply the tape so it really fits well with no bubbles....trim with a craft knife and you are done.

  7. Hmmmm......lets see...
