jgraves 0 Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 The little big fats look cool, but I didn't just mean the overhead view of the tips being shaped like a boat, I meant the whole tip in 3 dimensions. More like a pontoon in front than a ski tip. Of course it would be expensive to produce, but it might make for one bad ass ski. Anyway, that was just one thought that came to mind to balance out the lasers and cup-holders. I'm serious. What about ski tips that you could adjust the curvature of and/or lengthen the ski for different conditions? I've hijacked this thread a bit, but. . . Link to post Share on other sites
Peter North 0 Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I have some friends who have some really early models. Fascinating it is. They are huge things. I'm not sure I'd like to have a go on them myself./ Link to post Share on other sites

The reason for it was 'to have a better snow spray' Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted June 9, 2006 Share Posted June 9, 2006 We all want a good snow spray. Sounds like a decent enough reason to me! Link to post Share on other sites
marnix 0 Posted June 25, 2006 Share Posted June 25, 2006 Here some good sprays on http://www.1stdecade.de/northernlite/cocaine/ NorthernLite_Cocaine_large.mov. It's about 60Mb so it might take some time to download but worth it. Link to post Share on other sites
