Re: A Little Love for Rex Universal
Tried this wax for the first time today and I was impressed. Air temp was around 34 and snow likely colder, considering we’ve had arctic temps down to -40 for the last four days. Grip was excellent in the 1-2 inches of powder on a consolidated base, and glide was pretty damn good too. I’ve always st...

Re: Asnes Mountain Race 48 SKIN
Where can a guy find these skis? My sister lives in BC, any shops that carry the MR?

Re: 2022 Falketind 62 Xplore 196 cm First Impressions
Yet another fantastic tour with the FTX last week. Skied a lollipop loop up and over a gentle summit in the backyard mountains. Total tour was 12 miles and 2,500’ vertical. Skied up the valley with blue extra in the kick zone and switched to the 58 mm nylon kickers when the going got steep. Once alo...

Re: How many poles?
mca80 I have the adjustable Swix poles and like them. The locking mechanism did fail on my first outing with them, the plastic sheath inside the screw adjustment detached and got stuck in the pole. I was eventually able to get the pole apart and put it back together, but the connection between the ...

Re: Åsnes Gamme
Very familiar with the waxing resources on this site. I ski these two skis almost every day and have been scratching my head as to why exactly the T78 is faster. I do have enough grip most of the time on the Gamme. More experimentation is needed, I reckon. Perhaps it’s because I only take the T78 ou...

Re: Åsnes Gamme
I’ve had a lot of alternating days this season skiing on Gamme and Fischer T78s and I’ve come to an interesting conclusion: the T78s are faster than the Gamme. What?! I don’t understand this. I’m around 78 kg and skiing the 200 cm Gamme, and 199 cm T78. What gives? I’ve been kick waxing from the ski...

Re: Alternatives to Alpina Alaska 75mm
Could anyone provide sizing guidance on the Svartisen? I measure exactly at 45 on a Brannock, size 46 in Alpina Alaska.

Does anyone recall if Neptune has sold the Combat NATO in years past?
