I was just wondering about homemade skis. Is it hard? I know how to use tools and can do some woodworking. Im pretty sure some people on here have done it so I'd like to hear how you did it, and see your creations.

you have $10,000 bucks to spare? if so, you could make some skis!

it's a lot easier to have someone make custom skis for you than make em yourself. if you're really interested, check out wagner skis
