probably about a 1/2 to one pound.

The ski used to have spray paint on it and it chipped like crazy, it had almost completely come off. The linex filled in all the chunks and scrapes really well.

that would be a good solution to those owning invaders, they seem quite prone to delaminating

Free for me, and probably impossible to buy at a shop. Most places wont do it because the ski is plastic and linex is not meant to stick to it. However if you know some one that works at one they can do what ever they like.

Your right about the "sticker" its actualy a plastic warranty badge, but I think it needs to go.

I just think you need to man up. Just like everyone says "fujis are a park only ski". Bullshit, Mine are mounted at plus 10 and I can ride everywhere. I straightline shit alday at alpine with these. The 1/2 lb will be nothing for me. I'v riden skis that weight twice as much as these, but its still just skiing. Things like that only effect you if you let them. just my 2cents.

It is really not the heavy believe it or not. i did shoot it fairly thin, about half the thickness that I would do on our trucks.

i think he meant it would throw you off having one ski way more than the other. Not overall weight.

Ok I just used my fish scale to weigh the skis. The non linex ski w/ s810's was 6 pounds 8 oz. with linex it was 6 pounds 15 oz. So not much of a difference, less then a half pound. My pe's with p12's weigh 7 pound 5 oz. I wish I had bindings on the madens.

def get rid of that sticker, they ruin it. The all black look would suit you better than with a yellow sticker
