this will work, right? the TXP's don't have a lot of ROM, but should be ok in the wind

I sure hope you did that gently!
When I had a 280Z, I put a pad from a lawn chair on top and ran a strap through the windows to hold down a 9' nose rider to go to the beach. Worked great!

RED is the fastest color they make.

GCW, Norway might disagree with you about red being the fastest color....

Blue?

Gamme's are considered faster Asnes kick & glide skis & are blue.

Are they the fastest Asnes K&G ski?

when I raced nordic in high school, I would paint my brand new race skis so that no one knew what I was using. it was a psych-out tactic and I felt faster. feeling fast is sometimes really important.

It's a video of the reviewers at Blister trying out tele skiing.
Pretty funny.

I know this is mountaineering, but hey there’s snow. Got a lesson from my friend Mark (blue coat) on his homemade climbing wall, then he says, ok you got it, let’s go repel down and climb back out of a frozen slot waterfall. Uh, ok.
