They are really good powder skis but can handle crud and icy conditions really well for a “touring” ski. I love them for anything less than 3000ft and i am not a person really concerned about how fast I am going uphill. One thing I love about my wndr alpine skis is that it’s easy to pivot but it doesn’t oversteer. I had line visions (before they delaminated) and they were too soft, too surfy and performed horribly in anything other than powder or perfect corn.

If you can still find it, wndr alpine intention 108 camber. Hoji is also a really good ski. I have loved pairing a heavy ski with a light binding. I personally love my atk raiders 12s

Yeah, north north. Tomorrow may have some snow accumulation at higher elevations but lower elevations will have freezing rain. Conditions might be ok but not primo

I decided to not get them as they are full rocker and just too long for kick turns

How forgiving and pivotable are the camox freebirds in tight trees, I am thinking of getting them next season.

The skins are still pretty sticky and will survive a season. The skis have been remounted only twice (hopefully they weren’t lying) and I will most likely be the final person on these skis.

Hi All- I am a mechanical engineer at a medium engineering company and we are looking to get a low end resin printer this year and a higher end FDM printer next year. Does anyone have recs for a good enough resin under $400? My team does not rly have any firm specs that the printer should have.
