DMKW Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Yes, bastardizing Crocodile Dundee with the title reference! Perusing the Japanese alpine listings on ebay, I stumbled onto this. Anyway, those "edges" gave me a chuckle... https://www.ebay.ca/itm/155587403680?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=g1xUBUBdRrC&sssrc=2047675&ssuid=5uF7NZ3rRt6&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack M Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Do I understand correctly, the board has what looks like Titanal strips on the base, but also traditional steel edges? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corey Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Maybe it's for the plastic dry slope stuff? Sandboarding? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
philw Posted June 20, 2023 Report Share Posted June 20, 2023 Dunno. But in UK you'll not see anything like that on a dry slope. Most people use old snow gear, but if you want something specific you want it to be slightly shorter/ softer than your normal ride, because top speeds are much slower. You get a lot of base wear, but it doesn't matter. Edges get rounded and need a lot of sharpening... if you know how to use them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
